EDITION TUBE-MANUAL
WE'RE DELIGHTED THAT YOU CHOSE TO
PURCHASE AN HUGHES & KETTNER
EDITION TUBE!
The EDITION TUBE delivers mighty all-tube tone in Hughes &
Kettner's handy Edition format. Sporting two channels and
a nifty retro design, it mates simple functional elegance to
bodacious tube tone, giving you an easy-to-use, portable
combo that looks and sounds great.
The EDITION TUBE's Clean channel delivers a remarkably
varied spectrum of vintage sounds from squeaky-clean yet
warm skank to rough-and-ready blues-approved bite, and
all points in between. Taking up where Clean leaves off, the
Lead channel ups the dirt factor, giving you the full
bandwidth, from a throaty growl to creamy,
searing rock lead tone.
Two EL84 tubes toil away in the EDITION TUBE's engine room
- they're responsible for the amp's striking sound. These
power amp tubes are known and cherished by tube freaks
for a unique property - they begin saturating at medium
volume levels, and squeezing the signal with ever so sweet
compression. And that's why the EDITION TUBE is better sui-
ted for situations that call for moderate volume levels.
However, we're not talking wallflower here - au contraire, it
can rock out with the best of them. Living up to Hughes &
Kettner's rep for building ultra-responsive tone generating
machines, the preamp reacts very dynamically to your
touch, and packs plenty of punch when you attack those
strings hard. With a back that is almost fully closed, the
cabinet provides additional bottom end oomph. Twenty
genuine tube-driven watts and the 12" Eminence
RockDriver Cream loudspeaker do their part to give the
EDITION TUBE the kind of sonic wallop you need to be
heard loud and clear at rehearsals and club gigs.
Rounding out the EDITION TUBE's complement of features
are a variable spring reverb, an effects loop, and a
connector for external cabinets. But then that shouldn't
come as a huge surprise because any Hughes & Kettner
amp boasting the "EDITION" mark of distinction promises a
touch of class.
HERE'S YOU WISHING YOU LOTS OF FUN WITH
THE TONE OF YOUR EDITION TUBE!

BEFORE POWERING UP

• Check that your local wall socket voltage and the
amp's AC power rating are identical before you
plug the amp in.
• Ensure air can circulate around your amp's
ventilation ducts.
• Make sure the amp sits securely on a stable plat-
form where it is not exposed to mechanical shocks
or temperature extremes which may damage the
amp or endanger the safety of bystanders.
• Hughes & Kettner is not liable for damages due to
improper use.
