When the Power Selector is set to one of the Half Power settings, set the Impedance
Selector to
one half of the total speaker load. For example, when connected to the stock
8-ohm Slant 6V cabinet, set the Impedance selector to 4 ohms.
Example speaker configurations and their impedance settings:

*In this configuration, a 2-ohm setting of the Impedance Selector would be required in either of the half
power modes. In this case, you should use the 4-ohm setting of the Impedance Selector. This will not harm
the amplifier, but the power tubes will have to work harder and thus age faster.
Mixing speakers and cabinets of differing loads is not recommended.
Effects Loop – The effects loop is a simple, unbuffered insertion point between the Slant
6V’s preamp and power amp sections. Connect a guitar cable from the Send jack to the input
of your effects chain. Connect another guitar cable from the output of your effects chain to
the Return jack. Set the
Loop/Bypass switch to Loop .
The settings of the Slant 6V volume controls affect the level of the signal sent to the effects
loop. If you are playing at high volume, the effects send signal level may be very high—high
enough to overload some of the effects in your effects chain. Conversely, if you are playing
at a very low volume, your effects may seem noisy because they aren’t getting enough signal
from the effects send. Using buffered effects with input and output volume controls can
correct these problems should they arise.
Many effects are designed to work best when connected between the guitar and the amp—
experiment to find out what works for you.
When the effects loop is not in use, set the
Loop/Bypass switch to Bypass .
