A. INPUT 1 — A normal sensitivity input, ideal for use with
most guitars.
♫
Either input jack can be used with any type of guitar
depending on the tone character you prefer. Experiment
and use the input that sounds the best to you.
B. INPUT 2 — A lower sensitivity input (–6dB) that provides
cleaner response with high-output and pre-amplified guitars.
♫
You can use Input 1 and Input 2 simultaneously with two
guitars or a guitar and a microphone, for example. Input
sensitivities become equal when used simultaneously.

frequency tones of the Normal channel.

O. PREAMP OUT / POWER AMP IN — Multi-functional
input/output jacks that can be used in a variety of
configurations:
(1) Effects Loop—Connect PREAMP OUT to the input of
your effects device and connect the effects output
to the POWER AMP IN jack.
(2) Multiple Hot Rod Amps—Connect PREAMP OUT on
the primary unit to POWER AMP IN on the auxiliary
unit. The primary unit is used to control all auxiliary
units, except for REVERB and PRESENCE which remain
active on each auxiliary unit.
(3) Recording or Sound Reinforcement—Connect
PREAMP OUT to the input jack of sound equipment.
♫
Use instrument (shielded) cables with TS (Tip-Sleeve)
plugs
POWER AMP IN jacks are located before Reverb and
Presence in the signal path.
P.
FOOTSWITCH — Connect the included footswitch here
to enable remote selection of the Normal / Drive / More
Drive channels. The CHANNEL SELECT {K} button on
the control panel is disabled when the footswitch is
connected.
♫
Speaker cable (unshielded) is superior to instrument
cable (shielded) for connecting the footswitch.
Q. POWER INDICATOR — Illuminates when the unit is ON.
Unscrew the red jewel to access the bulb (type T47) for
replacement.
R. STANDBY — Use Standby instead of switching the power
off during short breaks to avoid having to wait for the
tubes to warm up when you want to start playing again.
Also, keep the amplifier on Standby for the first 30
seconds when you first switch the power on to give the
tubes a gentle warm up cycle.
♫
Using Standby will extend the life span of your
amplifier's vacuum tubes by reducing the shock of the
heat-up / cool-down cycle on the tube filaments.
S. POWER SWITCH — Switches the unit ON/OFF.
