Front Panel

1. Input
Plug your guitar in here. Always use a good quality screened guitar lead.
2. Clean Volume
This controls the volume of the Clean Channel. Turning it clockwise increases
the volume.
3. Clean Tone
The Tone control allows adjustment of the balance between treble and bass
frequencies within the sound. At low settings (counter clockwise) the sound will be
warmer and darker in character. As the Tone control is rotated clockwise the sound
will become brighter.
4. Overdrive Select
Press this switch to select the Overdrive Channel.
5. Overdrive Indicator
When the red LED is on the Overdrive Channel is selected. When the LED is off the
Clean Channel is in operation.
6. Overdrive Gain
The Gain control adjusts the amount of the Overdrive Channel's overdrive or
distortion. Low settings, counter clockwise (CCW), will deliver a clean sound on
the edge of break-up. As the Gain control is increased clockwise (CW) the sound
will become more overdriven moving through crunch tones until, at its maximum
position, a full distorted lead tone is arrived at.
7. Overdrive Volume
This controls the volume of the Overdrive Channel. Turning it clockwise increases
the volume.
8. Bass (OD Channel)
The Bass control adjusts the amount of low end frequencies in your tone. This amp
has an advanced tone shaping circuit which allows the tone to be tight and cutting,
(CCW), to warm and thumping (CW).
9. Middle (OD Channel)
The Middle control adjusts the amount of middle frequencies in your tone. The
middle frequencies are particularly important in setting the amount of 'body' your
tone has. With the Middle control set to its minimum position (fully CCW) the sound
will be aggressive and scooped, a tone ideal for aggressive rhythm playing. As the
Middle control is increased (CW) the amount of 'body' is increased, which is more
suitable for sustained lead guitar tones.
