FRONT PANEL (from right to left).
INPUT
Plug your guitar in here!
GAIN
This adjusts the input sensitivity. Use low settings for maximum clean headroom
and higher settings when you want to introduce more natural valve overdrive to
your tone.
Balancing your input gain level with your master volume level is crucial in delivering
the tone and feel that works best for you.
BASS CUT SWITCH
This switch alters the high-pass filter from the first gain stage which will reduce the
amount of bass frequencies going through the preamp. It can be useful to increase
the clean headroom and reduce distortion if you have a high Gain setting and your
instrument produces excessive bass.
BASS
This knob controls the low frequency content of your sound. Higher levels of bass
can be good at low volumes, but take care when running the amp louder
–
you may
find you need to reduce the bass control. As with all the EQ pots, adjust for your
preferred tone and use in conjunction with the Bass Cut switch if necessary.
MID BOOST SWITCH
When activated, this will increase the range of mid frequencies going through the
Treble Control. It can be very useful to add punch to the overall tone and cut-
through the mix in a live situation.
