VOTRTEX - MANUAL
CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING
THE HUGHES & KETTNER
A team of guitarists and technicians developed
the VORTEX™ line of amps with a single purpose in
mind: to provide you with great guitar sounds and
practical features in an easy-to-handle package.
The VORTEX™ is the ideal workhorse for the
discerning player. The VORTEX™'s high-
performance Current Feedback power amp
delivers the sought-after, wide-open tube tone
that other amps so sorely lack. It also makes the
VORTEX™ far louder than other amps with the
same output rating.
Its clear and convenient handling concept makes
it so easy for you to access the VORTEX™'s world
of sound. This manual gives you a detailed look at
its features and possibilities. It also provides the
information you need to be able to handle this
amp with confidence.
ENJOY THE TONE OF YOUR VORTEX™!
YOUR HUGHES & KETTNER
