Troubleshooting
1. The amp isn’t powering up when the POWER
switch is ON.
•
Have you installed batteries? Is the polarity correct?
Or, is the AC adapter cord connected to the rear
panel of the amp correctly?
•
Is the AC adapter plugged into an AC outlet?
•
Is the AC outlet switched on and working?
•
Is the AC adapter damaged?
2. There’s no sound coming from the amp
•
Is your guitar turned up?
•
Are both ends of your guitar cable plugged into
where they should be?
•
Is your guitar cable working?
•
Are the top panel MASTER volume and GAIN knob
turned up?
•
Do you have headphones or anything else plugged
into the amp’s rear panel LINE/PHONE jack? If “yes,”
unplug!
3. The amp doesn’t seem very loud
•
Is your guitar turned up?
•
Is the top panel MASTER volume or GAIN knob
turned down low?
•
Is the POWER SELECT switch on the rear panel set
to a lower wattage?
4. There’s no sound heard from the LINE/PHONE
jack when you use it.
•
Check that the top panel MASTER volume isn’t
turned all the way down.
•
Make sure sound is coming from the amp.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
You’ll need to unplug your headphones
or cable from the LINE/PHONE jack to do this, since plug-
ging something into this jack automatically mutes the
amp’s speakers. If there’s still no sound from the amp, go
to “There’s no sound coming from the amp.” If you do
hear sound, check the headphones or cable you are hook-
ing up to this jack.
5. You can’t hear any effects.
•
Check that the BYPASS LED isn’t lit. If it is lit, the ef-
fect is bypassed. Press the BYPASS button to disen-
gage it; the BYPASS LED will go off.
•
Is the EDIT 1 knob turned down too low? Adjust the
EDIT 1 knob.
6. You cannot hear the sound from a player con-
nected to the rear panel AUX IN jack.
•
Is the player connected to the amp correctly?
•
Is the volume level on the player set too low?
7. You cannot hear sound from a microphone con-
nected to the MIC INPUT jack.
•
Is the microphone connected to the amp correctly?
Is the mic switch turned on?
•
Is the MIC VOLUME knob set too low?
