  • Page 8 Using the Valve Amplifier To get the best out of your new Fazley Galactic Tube amplifier and fully enjoy all of the features that it has to offer, it is recommended to follow the steps included below. It is also important that the instrument you plug into your amplifier is compatible. The Galactic Tube Series amplifiers are designed to amplify electric guitars only.
  • Page 9 Preparing for First Time Use A brand-new valve amplifier usually requires 10 to 14 days (or 8 to 24 hours of running time) to break in. The valves will start to sound better following the break-in period, allowing the speaker to move better during use.
  • Page 10 The Galactic Tube amplifiers are ideally transported and carried with caution and using the integrated handle. It’s strongly recommended to avoid transporting the amplifier using equipment like a wheel board on uneven surfaces such as cobbled roads, so that the valves are not subjected to any shocks, bumps, or heavy vibrations that may shorten the lifespan of the valves.
  • Page 11 Reverb (R 15 / R 20 Models Only) The Galactic Tube R 15 and R 20 amplifiers feature a reverb function in the form of a mechanical reverb effect – also called a spring reverb. Mechanical reverb effects are based on a traditional concept where speaker vibrations are used to control a spring fitted with a pickup to shape an effect that can be be added to the sound of the amplifier.
