Front Panel
(1) INPUT I
Used for most electric guitars. It is 10 dB louder than INPUT II.
(2) INPUT II (not on ValveKing
Provided for instruments that have extremely high outputs, which can result in overdriving (distorting)
INPUT I. If both inputs are used simultaneously, the levels are the same (both are high gain like INPUT I).
(3) VOLUME
Controls the volume level of the Clean channel.
(4) BRIGHT SWITCH (not on 20MH)
Provides a boost to treble frequencies. To activate, depress the switch to its "IN" position. The ValveKing
20MH instead has a certain amount of brightness voiced into the Clean channel.
(5) CHANNEL SELECT SWITCH
Allows selection of the Lead or Clean channel. The "IN" position of the switch selects the Lead channel and
the "OUT" position selects Clean.
NOTE: Channel selection may also be achieved by using an optional remote dual latching footswitch.
If remote selection is desired, the CHANNEL SWITCH (#5) must be in the "IN" (Lead) position.
(6) BASS, MIDDLE AND TREBLE EQ (not on 20MH)
Passive tone controls that regulate the low, mid and high frequencies of the Clean channel. In the case of the
ValveKing
®
(7) GAIN
Controls the input volume level of the Lead channel and the amount of overdrive.
(8) GAIN (GAIN BOOST on 20MH)
Acts as an extension to the GAIN control (#7). When depressed, this switch increases the preamp gain to add
more distortion. The GAIN boost (#8) may be selected independently or in conjunction with the volume BOOST
(#9) (except on 20MH). This feature can also be controlled via an optional remote dual latching footswitch.
NOTE: Activating this feature is comparable to turning up the Gain control, thus increasing distortion.
