The Traynor YCS100H
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a new Traynor Custom Special 100H guitar amplifier head. It represents a blend of the
latest technology providing great flexibility and featuring vintage tube circuitry for an ultimate tone and trouble free
performance for years to come.
Designed by musicians, for musicians, Traynor Custom Special amplifiers are built for maximum versatility but are
still simple to operate. It's always easy to get a great tone from a Traynor amp. With the Custom Special series, we
made it even easier by adding an array of tone sculpting options like Scoop, Bright and Modern voicing switches,
Resonance and Presence controls; and yes, with the addition of a Solo Boost knob, these amps actually go to 11.
For greater flexibility, the YCS100H output stage can be operated in either 100-watt or 30-watt modes. The
YCS100H will operate in 100-watt (Class AB) mode that will produce a full 100-watts of output power, used where
maximum headroom is needed. For situations where more tube warmth is required at lower volume levels, the
YCS100H can be switched to 30-watt (Class A) mode. This is achieved by cutting the operating voltage to the output
tubes in half and automatically adjusting the bias level to operate in Class A mode.
Please take a few moments to read this manual in order to gain maximum enjoyment from your new YCS100H.
