CLEAN PREAMP SECTION
The Clean Preamp is based on the classic Tweed Style design with some important
differences:
1.
Get into the “sweet spot” and still be able to play at various volume levels and venue sizes.
2. Imitate the more traditional Treble Middle Bass style amps when needed.
3. Footswitch control of preamp Tone (Boost) for instant personality changes.
4. Select the amount of Bass gain appropriate to your guitar choice (via Humbucker/Single coil
switch covered in the
Rear Panel
Section of this manual).
5. Fully buffered FX loop.
Bright Switch
– Center = OFF, Down = sound of new strings, Up = normal Bright response.
Volume
– Sets the “sweet spot” – adjust this for the amount of character you desire in your
tone.
Typical setting is between 3 and 5 but experimentation is encouraged.
Tone
– Treble is emphasized at settings past 5, more bass at the lower numbers. When rotated
to zero it clicks off for a full tone lift. The tone lift can also be accessed instantly via the Boost
button on the footswitch (see the
Other Features
section of this manual for details).
Mode Selector
– A six position rotary switch, it steps through 6 progressively fatter positions of
midrange and girth. The fattest Tweed setting is position 6.
