DIRECTIONS

Run a cable from your guitar to the Fullbore Metal's INPUT jack and run another cable from the Fullbore Metal's OUTPUT jack to your amplifier.
NOTE: Start with Volume, Gain, and Bass at their lowest setting (fully counterclockwise). This pedal is very dynamic and adds tons of gain—be warned!
Turn the effect on by depressing the footswitch.
Adjust the Gain, Volume, Low, Mid, Freq and High controls until the desired output and tone is acquired.

NOISE GATE TRIGGER CONTROL

With a small flathead screwdriver, rotate the Arrow clockwise to increase the Noise Gate's sensitivity, causing the gate to cut off faster. Rotate the Arrow counter-clockwise if notes are being cut off too early.
