1. Connections & Operating Elements

Front side, from right to left:

INPUT:

Input for guitar.

TWANG:

Switches the clean channel from classic British tonal character to the attack-rich vintage Californian clean sound.

VOLUME:

Regulates the volume and saturation of the CLEAN channel. Saturated crunch sounds can be generated with higher volume settings (depending on the guitar’s output level).

Back side, from left to right:

Illustration: DUAL EL84

REVERB BALANCE:

Regulates the ratio of reverberation between the CLEAN and DRIVE channels.

CHANNEL SELECT switch:

The illuminated pushbuttons serve for manually switching between CLEAN (amber) and DRIVE (red) channels. This switching function is executable via foot switch.

BOOST:

Boosts selected frequency ranges in the DRIVE channel. Even more creamy sounds will be achieved this way. This switching function is executable via foot switch.

GAIN:

Regulates the degree of overdrive in the DRIVE channel.

MASTER:

Regulates the volume of the DRIVE channel.

EQ:

Common BASS, MID and TREBLE controllers for both channels. MID and TREBLE have a reciprocal influence on each other (as is usually and desirable with tube amps): A high-frequency accentuation causes a mid-range reduction and vice versa.

REVERB:

Regulates the overall intensity of the integrated Accutronics® spring reverb. The spring reverb is also capable of being activated via foot switch.

FX-LOOP:

External effects can be looped-in via the serial effect path. In this connection, SEND is linked with the input and RETURN is linked with the output of the effect device. The FX-loop is also capable of being activated via foot switch.

FOOT SWITCHES:

The Statesman offers connections for two double foot switches (e.g. Hughes & Kettner FS-2). The first connection switches the channels, and turns the BOOST in the DRIVE channel on/off. The second connection turns the internal spring reverb or the FX-loop on/off. Single foot switches can also be connected; then the functions will be switched via the “TIP” control mechanism.

EXTERNAL SPEAKER:

Jack for connection of loudspeaker boxes whose total impedance is in between 8 ohm and 16 ohms. The internal loudspeaker thus remains in operation; the connection is in parallel to the internal speaker. The two models STM 112 (1 x 12”, 60 Watt, 8 Ohm) and the larger STM 212 (2 x 12”, 120 Watt, 16 Ohm) are optimally suitable in terms of sound.
