OWNERS MANUAL

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your purchase of a

amplifier from Premier Builders

Guild.

As a discerning guitarist, you know the road to great tone begins with
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
questions that you may have.

We extend a warm welcome to you as a member of a select group of
musicians who have chosen a amplifier.

4. Follow all instructions

5. Do not use this apparatus near water

6. Clean only with dry cloth

7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, plugs, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus

9. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs and the point
where they exit from the apparatus

10. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer

11. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time

12. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled
or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally, or has been dropped

13. CAUTION: To disconnect the unit completely from the MAINS, unplug the unit. Turning the power
switch off does not disconnect the unit completely from the MAINS.

Front Panel Functions

1.

Input Jack

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

2.

FET Gain-

The FET (Field Effect Transistor) feature consists of a single stage high impedance
preamp/buffer. This feature can be switched in and out via the front panel switch (“ON” is “up”
position) or footswitch. This mode offers an additional buffered gain stage, and can be used to
buffer the input from high output pickups or increase the signal of low output pickups. The FET
GAIN control controls the amount of signal fed to the following stage(s) {gain control}

3.

FET Switch-

Enables or defeats the FET feature. (“ON” is “up” position)

4.

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 next gain stage.

5.

Bright Switch-

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.

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 next gain stage.

7.

Mid Switch- Boosts

the mid range frequency response.

8.

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.

9.

Deep Switch-

Boosts the low and low-mid frequencies. This is a low frequency contour switch,

changing the low and low-mid response.

10.

Input 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.

11.

Clean Channel Master Volume-

Adjusts the output level of the clean channel.

12.

Q1/Q2- This

switch allows you to choose between 2 completely different equalization settings.

Q1

is a lower gain setting, with extended midrange and bass available when used in conjunction
with the middle and bass controls as well as the deep switch. This setting is suitable for any style
requiring a pure clean tone with a nice round bottom and plenty of headroom.

Q2

is a higher gain setting, allowing a greater signal level to pass to the lead channel. This setting
is suitable for any style requiring a clean to slightly distorted tone in clean mode, and more gain in
the lead mode.

13.

Lead Gain

- Adjusts the input level (gain) of the lead channel.

14.

Lead master

- Adjusts the output level of the lead channel.

15.

Lead Channel Switch

- Sends the instrument signal through the lead circuit, adding extra
stages of gain to the signal and enabling the lead gain and lead master controls. To enable foot
switch control of this function, switch must be in the down position.

16.

Bypass Switch

- This switch bypasses the tone controls, increasing both level and mid-range

response. To enable footswitch control of this function, switch must be in the down position.

17.

Contour Control

- The contour control is an active wide band sweep. In the 12 o’clock

position, the amps’ frequency response is flat. Counterclockwise rotation reduces high end

response and increases low frequencies. Counterclockwise rotation decreases low end and
increases the high frequency response. This control is very useful for maintaining preamp tone
control settings, while allowing a global adjustment to compensate for differences in room
acoustics, speaker cabinets, or bright to dark guitars (PRS Humbucker to Strat, for example). This
control also actively reduces the articulation available, allowing a softer setting, or extremely open
and revealing, depending on your individual style and requirements.

18.

Stand-by Switch

- Should be in the “down” or “stand-by” position when you apply power to the

unit. After a few seconds, place the switch in the “up” position to use the amplifier. You may leave

the unit “powered up” and place this switch in the “stand-by” position to mute the output.

19.

Indicator Lamp

- This lamp will illuminate when the power switch is in the “up” position,

indicating the unit is receiving A/C power.

NOTE: All switches are ON in the “up” position
