1.INPUT: Use this 1/4” jack to connect your instrument to the amplifier by means of a shielded instrument cable.

2.GAIN: Use this control to adjust the signal level at the Input jack (#1). As you rotate this control clockwise, overdrive distortion is added to the sound.

Player’s note: One way to get a wide range of sounds is to start with the PowerBlock’s Gain control near fully clockwise and your guitar turned way down. The resulting clean sound “fattens up” as you bring up the volume on your guitar.

3.HIGH: Use this control to adjust the high frequency output of the amplifier.

4.MID: Use this control to adjust the midrange frequency output of the amplifier.

5.LOW: Use this control to adjust the low fre- quency output of the amplifier.

6.LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the over- all output level of the amplifier.

7.: The PowerBlock is great for private practice sessions - simply Connect a pair of stereo headphones to this jack without con- necting the amp to your speakers. The signals at the Speaker Output jacks and the Line Out and Effects Send jacks jacks (#9, 12, and 14, rear panel) are not interrupted when head- phones are used. (The signal at the head- phones jack is enhanced by the speaker sim- ulator circuitry for superior sound.)

8.(POWER ON LED): This LED illuminates a cool blue when the amplifier is on.
