Setting Up and Using Your Hartke GT100 Guitar Amplifier

1.Remove all packing materials (save them in case of need for future service) and decide where the amplifier is to be physically placed. To avoid potential overheating problems, make sure that the rear panel is unobstructed and that there is good ventilation around the entire unit.

2.Before you plug-in the power cable, be sure the POWER switch is in the off (down) position. Connect the supplied power cable to the AC INLET located on the rear panel. Then, plug-in the 3-pin AC plug into any grounded AC socket. Don’t turn the GT Series on just yet, though.

3.If you are using the GT100 head, connect a un-shielded speaker cable from the SPEAKER OUT located on the GT100’s rear panel to the INPUT on the rear of the GH412/ GH412A speaker cabinet.

WARNING: The GT100 is to be used only when conected to an 4 or 8 ohm speaker load. Use with speaker loads of less than 4 ohms can result in severe damage to the unit due to excessive heat and current limiting and will

4.Use a standard shielded instrument cable to connect your guitar to the INPUT jack on the front panel.

5.On the front panel of the GT Series, turn the CRUNCH and VOLUME on CHANNEL 1, and GAIN and VOLUME on CHANNEL 2 controls to their minimum (fully counter- clockwise) position. Set the BASS, TREBLE and MID con- trols to their "5" position.

5.Press the front panel Power switch in order to turn on your GT Series amp; the switch will light up and you will see the tube heating up through the front panel window.

6.Press the front panel CHANNEL SWITCH to select CHANNEL 1. Note: If the footswitch is connected to the rear panel FOOTSWITCH input jack you will need to change the channel using the button 2 on the foot switch and select CRUNCH off for now with button 1.

7.Set the output of your guitar to maximum and then, while playing, slowly turn the GT Series CHANNEL 1 VOLUME control up until the desired level is achieved. You will get a nice clean tone when using just VOLUME (no CRUNCH) for level, so set it to the level you like.
