1. INPUT jack
Use a good quality guitar (screened) cable to
plug your guitar in here.
2. Clean VOLUME control
When the OD Select switch is 'out', this control
adjusts the volume of the Clean Channel. At low
settings the sound will be very clean with a bell-
like ring. Turning this control above half way will
introduce a desirable, bluesy distortion as the
power amplifier is driven into 'crunch mode'.
3. OD (Overdrive) SELECT switch
Depressing the Overdrive Select Switch will
engage the Overdrive Channel.
4. Overdrive GAIN control
Turning up the Overdrive Gain Control will
increase the amount of distortion generated in
the Overdrive channel. Low gain settings will
produce classic rock and blues tones. Crank the
Gain for fat and aggressive sounds that are
perfect for soloing or hard rock and nu-metal
riffs.
5. Overdrive VOLUME control
Amazingly enough, this control adjusts the
volume of the Overdrive channel!
The louder this channel is set, the 'looser' the
amplifier will sound and feel. This behaviour is
exactly what a good all-valve amplifier does and
is a result of our proprietary FDD circuitry.
6. CONTOUR control
This highly effective tone control works on both
the Clean and Overdrive channels. By radically
modifying the mid-range (body), the tone can
range from traditional and woody sounding
(setting at 10), to aggressive, 'scooped' and
modern (setting at 0) and all points in-between.

7. CD IN & EMULATED LINE OUT jack
The MG10CD cleverly combines its Line Out
and CD Input functions. If you want to jam to
your favourite CD or tape, merely connect the
headphone output of your CD or tape player
here, adjust the player's volume to match that of
your guitar and 'hey-presto' – you've got the
perfect 'play-along' practice system.
Alternatively, you can use this socket to
connect the MG10CD to your multi-track
recording machine and you'll get a great guitar
sound direct to disk or tape.
HELPFUL HINT: for 'silent' recording merely
plug an unconnected jack plug to the headphone
socket and you'll disconnect the MG10CD's
internal speaker.
8. EMULATED HEADPHONES jack
Plug your headphones here for a killer speaker
emulated sound! Doing this mutes your
MG10CD's internal speaker for 'silent' practice.
9. POWER Switch & LED
The power switch turns your amplifier on and
off. The LED will be lit when your amplifier is on
and will not be lit when the amplifier is switched
off.
Note: Before connecting to the mains
electricity supply, always ensure that your
electricity supply is compatible with your
amplifier, as detailed on the rear panel.
Please ensure the amplifier is switched off and
unplugged from the mains electricity supply
before being moved.
