Use this toggle to select one of the three Modes - RHYTHM, LEAD or CONTOUR. This toggle can also take the place of the remote footswitch when there isn’t one handy.

ON / STANDBY:

Perfect for set breaks...this toggle switch also serves an even more important purpose. In the STANDBY

This is the A.C.’s ( Alternating Current ) main fuse and provides protection from outside A.C. fluctuations, as well as power tube failure damage. Should the fuse blow, replace it with the same rating in a slo-blo type package. The domestic U.S. version requires a 1 amp slo-blo fuse. A power tube short or failure is often the cause of a blown fuse...Follow the cold start procedure mentioned in the ON / STANDBY switch section and watch the power tubes as you turn the STANDBY to the ON position. If a power tube is going bad or is arcing you will see it! Turn the

STANDBY Switch to STANDBY immediately and replace the faulty power tube and the fuse if necessary. If you see nothing abnormal as you lift the STANDBY, it is possible that a power tube shorted temporarily and blew the fuse. If this is the case it may work again normally. To be extra safe you may want to replace all power tubes in the "shotgun" troubleshooting tradition and save the replaced set as spares. Don’t forget to carry along a few extra fuses to your gigs, they could be worth their weight in
