Owner's Manual

INPUT Jack

This 1⁄4” jack is the audio input for the amplifier. The input impedance is 1.5MΩ.

VOLUME Knob

Controls the overall loudness and gain of the amplifier. We recommend turning down VOLUME prior to applying power. Turn up the VOLUME knob after the amp has been powered up for at least five seconds.

TONE Knob

Alters the amplifier’s frequency response. Turning this control counter-clockwise increases bass and turning it clockwise increases treble.

BITE Knob

Alters the amplifier’s gain level and frequency response. Turning this control clockwise increases the gain and treble content. This control is also very interactive with the VOLUME control; changing one affects the other.

REVERB Knob

Controls the volume of the reverb. When the reverb footswitch is not connected to the back panel via a 1⁄4” mono instrument cable, the reverb is always on.

Reverb Switch Knob

Chooses the reverb mode. From left to right, the modes are SPRING, HALL, PLATE, and REVERSE.

TIME Knob

Adjusts the decay time, or reverb length/size, for the SPRING, HALL and PLATE reverbs. In REVERSE mode, the TIME knob sets the length of time between striking a note and the reverb fade-in. While in PLATE mode, when TIME is set to its maximum position, the reverb decay is over 30 seconds, creating a lush reverb wash with each new note.
