If you’re using a guitar with humbucker pickups on CUBE-80XL, turn the [BRIGHT] switch to ON to achieve a bright, open sound. - Page 18 Rockabilly Slap CUBE-40XL Delay time = approx. 90 ms (reference) [SELECT] switch=LEAD This is the slapback-echo sound used in rockabilly and country. The BLACK PANEL amp produces a clean sound that is bright and sweet, with a powerful midrange and high end supported by a thick bass. By making the low and high ends more prominent while keeping them balanced, and also suppressing the midrange if the situation calls for it, you can bring out the dazzling resonance of the guitar even more beautifully.
