Getting Started
To set up your Mustang™ amplifier:
1 .
Plug the supplied power cord into a grounded outlet.
2 .
Plug in the stereo 4x12" speaker cabinet (Mustang V only).
3 .
Plug your guitar into the INPUT jack.
4 .
Press the POWER switch to turn the amplifier ON.
5 .
Adjust the MASTER volume level.
♫
MASTER volume is the only knob you need to adjust at
first because the settings of all the other knobs are pre-
programmed into each PRESET.
Selecting Presets
Turn the DATA WHEEL to select one of 100 presets.
You will find some presets you like and others that you want
to change...
Each preset stores the settings for:
• Amplifier type —
12 selections
• Effects —
4 categories, 37 selections total
• Knob levels —

To learn how to create your own presets, please see the
Advanced Owner's Manual on your Mustang DVD or at
Volume & Tone
The MASTER volume knob is always "active." That means the
position of the MASTER volume knob always shows the true
master volume setting, unlike the
programmable
knobs.
(Always turn the MASTER volume knob first to adjust the
overall volume output of your Mustang amplifier.)
Programmable Knobs
Because the setting of every knob (except MASTER) is part
of each preset, the "programmable" knobs are
inactive
and
knob positions will NOT show their actual settings when each
preset is first selected.
How do I activate a programmable knob?
The moment you
turn any programmable knob it instantly becomes
active
and it will remain active until you select a different preset, at
which time all programmable knobs become inactive again.
Press the DATA WHEEL to see what the preset settings are for
all the programmable knobs
before
you turn them. Press EXIT
to return to Play mode.
♫
As you navigate through the various screens, if you get
lost, just press EXIT to return to Play mode.
