B.INPUT PAD - Reduces input sensitivity to allow cleaner response with high-output guitars:

NORMAL—Full input sensitivity

–10dB PAD—Lower input sensitivity

C. GAIN - Adjusts the preamp signal level. Use together with MASTER {J} to set the overall amplifier loudness.

HI provides treble emphasis—useful in “dull” sounding environments (carpet/drapes)

LO provides bass emphasis—useful in “sharp” sounding environments (cement/tile)

E.TREBLE - Adjusts high–frequency tone character.
