The Tweed Preamp is designed to imitate the classic Tweed style guitar amps and do it with on
board spring reverb. The TweedyVerb gives the player the ability to do three unique things not
seen in conventional tweed style amps:
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 Mode and Boost for instant personality changes.
Bright Switch
– Center = OFF, Down = sound of new strings, Up = normal Bright response.
Volume
– This is the Preamp’s master volume, set it to the level best for your Overdrive tone.
Gain Control
-
Sets the “sweet spot” – adjust this for the amount of character you desire in
your clean tone.
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 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. Position 5 or 6 can be instantly
accessed via the footswitch (see the
Other Features
section of this manual for details).
DRIVE SECTION
The Drive section controls the amount of character to add to the
clean tone. The section’s
range of effect can be just a hint of early break up or a full on aggressive heavy metal distortion.
Gain Control
– Bypasses the section when rotated to zero, this control sets the amount of
signal for the first gain stage of the section. Low settings are smoother and higher settings are
more aggressive.
