standards - no ifs, ands or buts.
A purist's dream, the concept behind the PURETONE is as simple
as it is uncompromising - a single channel for a sweeping range of
stunning sounds. As its name would suggest, the PURETONE offers just
that - pure, unadulterated sound. Every component, every inch of
wiring was designed with a single goal in mind: to ensure that your

components. You can even cut the tone controls out altogether with
the GROWL knob. Thus you can make even the finest nuances in
your playing audible. Depending on your guitar's volume knob
setting and how hard you bear down on the strings, you can evoke

rough-and-ready overdrive. In a nutshell, a world of killer tone is right
there at your fingertips. The PURETONE gives you exactly what
guitarists all over the world want:
freedom of expression.

are reliability and stage-worthiness. Every amp of the Custom Tube
Series is equipped with tubes that live up to the highest standards for
quality and thus guarantee maximum dependability under even the
most demanding conditions.
These qualities and its unique aesthetics make the PURETONE

BEFORE POWERING UP
• Check that the local current and the amp's AC power rating are
identical before you plug the PURETONE's mains cable (power
cord) into an AC outlet.
• Ensure that air can circulate freely around your amp's
ventilation slots.
• Place the amp on a stable platform where it is not exposed to
mechanical shocks and temperature extremes which may
damage the amp or endanger the safety of bystanders.
• Hughes & Kettner is not liable for any damage to the amp due to
improper use.
NOTE: Although we select our tubes according to the highest standards for quality, these are nonetheless sensitive components. Their
service life may be shortened considerably
by improper handling. Just like a top-notch athlete, they need to
warm up before they're off to the races. Always power the amp up in
STANDBY mode and wait one to two minutes before you flip the
switch from STANDBY mode to ON.
