great components.

Our Classic Design, carefully selected parts and hand-built approach
combine to make an extremely versatile instrument.

Please take the time to read this manual. We hope it will answer any

Front Panel Functions

1.

Input Jack

- High impedance input to the amplifier. Plug in your instrument here.

2.

Treble Control

- Adjusts the high frequency response. In the full counter-clockwise position,
high frequencies are bypassed to ground. In the full clockwise position, high frequencies are
allowed to pass to the input gain stage.

3.

Middle Control

– Adjusts the mid-range response. In the full counter-clockwise position, the

tone will be somewhat “scooped” of mid-range response, emphasizing the highs and lows. In the

full clockwise position, mid-range frequencies are allowed to pass to the input gain stage.

4.

Bass Control

- Adjusts the bass response. In the full counter-clockwise position, low
frequencies are cut. In addition, the response of the treble and mid-range controls is greatly
reduced. In the full clockwise position, low frequencies are allowed to pass to the next gain stage.

5.

Clean Gain

- Adjusts the overall gain of the amplifier. Start with this control in the 12 o’clock
position. Keep in mind that the amount of gain set here determines the signal level feeding the
lead channel. Low gain settings of this control will require higher lead gain settings for the same
amount of overdrive.

Bright Pull-

Boosts the high frequency response. This is most effective when the input
gain is set at 12 o’clock or lower. The effect is less dramatic as the input gain control is
adjusted past the 12 o’clock position.

6.

Clean Master Volume-

Adjusts the output level of the amplifier. Both the clean and overdrive
output is controlled by this level. This level will also control how much signal is passed to any
pedal that is inserted into the effects loop.

7.

Clean Reverb

- The reverb return control mixes the reverb effect signal with the dry signal. At

full counterclockwise rotation, the reverb effect is defeated.

8.

OverDrive Gain

- Adjusts the input level (gain). The input gain cascades into this control. This

level can be set to match the input gain or can be set higher for more saturated gain levels.

9.

OverDrive Master

- Adjusts the output level.
