M-120 auto Q

Congratulations on the purchase of your new M-120 MXR Auto Q

stomp box! MXR effects have been favored by professional

guitarists for decades. While other effects have come and gone,

MXR's keep getting the job done ... with bulletproof construction,

quiet, reliable switching and tasteful, musically inspired tone

shaping.

DESCRIPTION

• Effect triggers equally at all playing volumes, by adjusting sensitivity

automatically.

• More adjustable tone parameters than any other auto-wah!

• Bonus "shimmer" effect, adjustable for Rate, Blend & Decay.

MXR M-120 Auto Q uses one 9-volt battery. The battery access is through

the bottom of the pedal. The Auto Q uses the Dunlop ECB03 Adapter

(ECB03E for Europe), a 9-volt DC regulated AC adapter. Plug polarity is

positive on the barrel and negative in the center. Note: Battery must be

installed to operate the Auto Q unless an AC adapter is used.
