A. INPUT
- Plug your guitar in here.
- Sensitivity/ gain switch for the input signal.
When this button is in, it provides a 7dB cut useful for
reducing distortion in the clean settings when using
guitars with active electronics or humbucking
pickups. The normal ‘out’ position is set for single coil
pickups.
- This button activates the classic FENDER-
CLEAN preset on your Automatic GT/SE amplifier.
- This button activates the STUDIO-CLEAN
preset. When pressed, it adds a mild boost in the
upper mid to high frequency range and provides
slightly more overall gain than the Fender-Clean
preset.
- This
button activates the RHYTHM/CRUNCH preset. It
rearranges the gain/tone structure to produce a
semi-distorted tone useful for playing rhythm or
bluesy leads. This preset has slightly more overall
loudness than the clean presets.
- This
button activates the RHYTHM/DRIVE preset. It
further modifies the structure to provide more gain,
loudness and a different tonal response than the
rhythm/crunch preset.
Note: To create even more tonal possibilities, you can
combine the various presets by simply pressing two
or more preset buttons (items C through F)
simultaneously.
G. FTSW
- This LED illuminates when the
LEAD/OVERDRIVE preset is activated, either by
pressing the corresponding preset button (item H), or
by using the CHANNEL SELECT function on the
optional two-button footswitch (see item Q).
- This
switch activates the LEAD/OVERDRIVE preset, which
is useful for playing full-on leads and heavy power
chords with lots of sustain. It has significantly more
drive and sustain than any of the other presets. When
this button is in, the previously selected clean or
rhythm preset is disabled. This lead/overdrive sound
can also be activated by the optional footswitch (see
item Q).
I. VOLUME
- Adjusts the overall loudness of the
amplifier.
J. TREBLE
- Adjusts the amount of boost or cut in
the high frequency range for all presets.
K. BASS
- Adjusts the amount of boost or cut in the
low frequency range for all presets.
