Quick Start Owner's Manual (English)

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Alesis X Guitar. The X Guitar is a high- performance guitar that includes both a traditional three-pickup system and an advanced, built-in stereo multieffects processor. Here are some of its important highlights:

●A fully-featured electric guitar in the most popular style of all time.

●A built-in multi-effects unit with dozens of guitar-optimized effects like distortion, compression, cabinet modeling, delay, wah, phase shifting, and reverb.

●A tuner that intelligently mutes the guitar.

●Built-in knobs and buttons for fine control over the effects.

●An input jack for an optional expression pedal, allowing for even greater real-time control over the effects.

●The output jack works with headphones, so you can play in private, in stereo.

●To preserve battery life, plug in an optional 9-volt power adapter.

●You can turn the effects off completely to use the instrument as a traditional electric guitar.
