22. Reverb

Control   of   the   spring   reverb   effect 

level.

23. Master Volume

Master volume control.

HINT:

  Besides controlling the volume, 

it   influences   saturation   of   the   clean 
channel.  Therefore, when turned down 

to a lower level, a crunch sound can be 
obtained on the clean channel.

24. Lampka sygnalizacyjna

When glowing, the amplifier in on.

HINT:  

There is a 12V bulb under the 

cover, which can be unscrewed without 

taking   the   chassis   out.   If   the   light 
needs to be replaced, turn the amplifier 

off, unscrew the metal nut, gently push 
the bulb in and turn left at the same 

time until the bulb comes free from the 
holder.

25. Stand By

In position “up” the amplifier is ready 
to work. Changing it to positions “ON” 

sends anode voltage to the tubes – in 

these positions the amplifier plays. 

HINT:

  You should keep the switch  in 

the   “up”   position   if   there   are   long 

breaks   between   playing.     You   should 
also   wait   about   1   min.   between 

switching   the  

Standby

  to   the   “up” 

position and turning the amplifier off.

26. Power

This switch turns the amplifier on and 
off. The amplifier is off when the switch 

is in position “up” – then the lamp - 24 
is not illuminated. 

The amplifier is on when the switch is 
in   position   “ON”   –   the   switch   is 

illuminated in red. In this position the 
amplifier does not play, but tubes are 

hot, and you can change channels.

HINT

:

 

Before turning the amplifier on, 

always   make   sure   that   the  

Standby 

switch   is   in   position   “up”   –   it   will 

extend the life span of the tubes. The 
amplifier   should   be   turned   on   in   the 

following way: first, turn on the  

Power 

switch and wait about 1 minute. Next, 

you can turn the 

Standby 

on. 

Turning   off   the   amplifier   works   the 

other   way   around.   First,   turn   the 

Standby

 on, then wait about 1 minute, 

afterward you can turn the

 Power 

off.
