OWNER’S MANUAL

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your purchase of a

!

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.

Important Safety Instructions

1. Read these instructions

2. Keep these instructions

3. Heed all warnings

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

NOR Input Jack

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

FET Input Jack

-This input sends the signal through a single FET (Field Effect Transistor) stage.

PREAMP Section

Volume

- - 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

- 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.

Mid

- Boosts the mid-range frequency response.

Rock/Jazz

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

JAZZ

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.

ROCK

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

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.

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.

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.
