SAMPLE SETTINGS:
let's listen to a few sample settings...Keep in mind that if you are using the TO GUITAR AMP jack, the
setting of the host amp determines much of the overall character of the sound. We suggest you start by
plugging into the host amplifier first and dialing up a balanced and warm clean rhythm sound. Watch out for
excessive highs or lows, as an over abundance of either of these frequencies can make it difficult to create
a great lead sound.

HINT:
It is possible to alter the gain structure of all three modes in V-TWIN by simply replacing
one or both 12AX7 tubes housed under the shielding cage with 12AT7 tubes. This will reduce the
amount of gain fairly substantially without compromising the V-TWIN's overall voice. Make sure the
unit has not been in use just prior to this simple user mod as hot pre-amp tubes can cause severe
burns.
Now that you have a better understanding of the Outputs and set-up procedures,
