shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of
time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction
may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition.
Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for
several hours, until the condensation has completely
evaporated.
356
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the
unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or
otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
359
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior
finish.
360
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on
which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the
surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to
prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that
the unit will not slip or move accidentally.
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one
that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove
stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive
detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with
a

559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you
will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
562
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that
incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such
cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or
impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications,
contact the manufacturer of the cable.
Add
• Do not insert hands, fingers, etc, into the openings in the unit’s
rear panel. In particular, if the unit is to used in households with

Important Notes When Using a Latch-type Footswitch Pedal
Normally, the on/off state of the footswitch pedal takes precedence over the control panel for switching EFX, delay, or reverb on
and off.
However, the on or off states stored in memory using the SOLO function take precedence when saved SOLO-function panel
settings are called up. Such cases may result in conflicting indicator displays on the control panel and the footswitch pedal, but this
is not a malfunction.
To make the indicator displays match up
Depress the footswitch pedal whose indicator display is different.
Make it match the indicator display on the control panel.
To make the on/off state of the footswitch pedal take priority at all times
On this unit, you can use either of the following settings to control operation when the panel settings for EFX, delay, and
reverb are called up using the SOLO function.
• Make the on/off state of the footswitch pedal always take priority
• Make the on/off state saved using the SOLO function take priority (default)
1. How to make the on/off state of the footswitch pedal always take priority
Hold down the TAP and SELECT switches at the same time and switch on the power.
2. How to make the on/off state saved using the SOLO function take priority
Hold down the TAP and TUNER switches at the same time and switch on the power.
* The changed setting remains in memory after the power is switched off.

Loud Metal
SELECT switch = LEAD
Space Clean
Delay time = approx. 600 ms (reference)
This sound produces heavy low-end reverberations when lower strings
are played while muted, and airy sustain when chords are played.
Playing with a humbucking rear pickup produces even more extreme
distortion. What’s more, you can make the sound even heavier by using
drop tuning or other such settings.
When you want to make the distortion edgier, boost the PRESENCE
setting. Also, when you’re using this as the lead sound, raising the
midrange and applying a long delay produces a fat sound with sustain.
This is a transparent sound that uses spatial effects.
Use the JC CLEAN amp, which is modeled on the Roland JC-120, and
add chorus, long delay, and reverb.
Using this setting with a guitar that has single-coil pickups makes for
arpeggios and chord strumming with beautiful resonance. If you’re
using a guitar with humbucker pickups, turn the BRIGHT switch to ON
to achieve a bright, open sound.
Setting the delay time to a value that makes the delay sound heard
slightly ahead of the tempo of the phrase played produces a thicker
sound.
Surf Line
20
This sound is perfect for the surf music popular in the 1960s.
Using this setting with a guitar that has single-coil pickups makes for an
edgy sound.
Applying deep spring reverb and using muting picking and chromatic
runs (muted picking with glissandos) produces the classic surf sound.
SELECT switch = LEAD
Tube Crunch

Swamp Crunch
Appendices
When the GAIN knob is at maximum, this produces a sound with the
lustrous distortion obtained from a vacuum-tube amplifier with the
volume turned all the way up.
You can obtain a near-clean sound with little distortion and unchanged
airy brightness simply by slightly turning down the volume on the
guitar.
By adjusting the volume knob on the guitar together with the GAIN
knob setting, adjusting the GAIN knob so that the amount of distortion
changes naturally depending on your picking dynamics with little
change in volume, you can obtain sound with a broad range of
expressiveness.
This is a blues sound found in vintage amps, with a tenacious midrange
and low end and a bright, open high band.
The boosted midrange and high end are distinguishing characteristics
of the TWEED amp. By turning up the TREBLE knob or lowering the
BASS knob slightly, you can adjust the attack sound of the picking.
To create a fat, sweet sound, reducing the presence a little may be
beneficial.
Conversely, to produce a transparent and sharp crunch sound with
little distortion, lower the midrange while boosting the presence
slightly.
Hard Stack
SELECT switch = LEAD
Tapping Lead
SELECT switch = LEAD
Delay time = 30 ms
Delay time = approx. 650 ms (reference)
This is a 1970s-style hard-rock sound.
Turning up the gain and the equalizer all the way produces a powerful
rock sound in all riffs and solos.
Applying a clean delay with a short delay time of 30 ms produces a fat
sound characteristic of the sounds emitted by the surfaces of the
cabinet.
Adding just a touch of phaser can also make the sound even broader.
Using effects devices like overdrive as well can produce distortion with
even richer harmonics.
You can also obtain a clear and airy crunch sound by turning down the
GAIN and BASS knobs.
This is a high-gain lead sound with sustain.
If you’re using a guitar with single-coil pickups, boost the gain to
produce sustain.
Raise the high end and presence to produce fully developed picking
harmonics. To produce smooth legato notes when using tapping, turn
down the midrange.
To make the sound even fuller, add just a light amount of delay and
reverb. Set a long delay time to keep phrases from becoming muddy.
Applying FLANGER produces a sound with smooth breadth, even when
playing riffs.

Rockabilly Slap
SELECT switch = LEAD
Mersey Beat
Delay time = 90 ms
This is the slapback-echo sound used in rockabilly and country.
The BLACK PANEL amp produces a clean sound that is bright and
sweet, with a powerful midrange and high end supported by a thick
bass.
By making the low and high ends more prominent while keeping them
balanced, and also suppressing the midrange if the situation calls for it,
you can bring out the dazzling resonance of the guitar even more
beautifully.
The sound of a guitar that has single-coil pickups with heavy tremolo
and reverb applied is also distinctive.
This is the famous Liverpool sound of years gone by.
This sound features a mild distortion that still lets all the notes in
a
chord come through clearly and distinctly.
Raise the midrange and presence on the BRIT COMBO amp to create
a
lively, energetic sound.
Adjust the GAIN knob so that the sound doesn’t distort too much when
you play chords.
Using a rear pickup provides a powerful sound with no muddiness,
producing a beautiful resonance when mixing open strings with
chords.
The sound may distort excessively if you’re using a high-output guitar,
such as one with humbucker pickups. If this happens, reduce the gain
to obtain a better balance of guitar sound and distortion. In some cases
you can also adjust the sound by cutting back the low end.
Dynamic Style
SELECT switch = LEAD
22
Delay time = approx. 650 ms (reference)
DYNA AMP is an original amp that uses relative picking intensity to
create changes in distortion depth.
First, adjust the GAIN knob so that a clean tone is obtained with soft
picking and heavy distortion is obtained when you pick hard.
Now mixing arpeggios played with a gentle touch along with firmly
picked chords and solos results in a guitar sound with huge dynamics.
Now, to create a broader, more open sound, cut the midrange and raise
the low end and presence.
Using this in combination with the EFX as well as delay and reverb
creates a sound with an even greater feeling of scale.
