Hughes & Kettner Blonde Edition 3.0 STANDARD SETUP/ CABLE CONNECTIONS 4.0 OPERATING THE EDITION BLONDE

LEAD GAIN: Controls the amount of distortion in the LEAD

channel.

LEAD MASTER: Determines the LEAD channel volume level in

relation to the CLEAN channel volume level.

EQ SECTION: Common BASS, MID and TREBLE controls for

the both channels. MID and TREBLE controls influence each

other, as is standard in tube amps: if you boost the treble, the

mids are cut and vice versa. This sound-shaping feature allows

you to dial in a wide variety of subtle tonal variations.

REVERB: Controls how much integrated reverb is added to the

signal. Reverb is automatically adjusted for each channel when

you switch channels.

MASTER: Controls the amp‘s master volume level. The LINE

OUT signal is unaffected by the MASTER control.

LINE OUT: Use this jack to feed the signal to the input of an FX

processor. You can also route the signal to a second power amp

or through a RED BOX to a mixing console.

LINE IN: If you are sending the LINE OUT signal to an FX pro-

cessor, connect the output from that processor to this jack.

FOOTSWITCH: This jack is for a standard footswitch (e.g.

Hughes & Kettner FS-1) and it allows you to switch back and

forth between the CLEAN and LEAD channels. When using a

footswitch, ensure the CHANNEL SELECT switch on the amp‘s

front panel is set to CLEAN.

PHONES: Headphone jack. The speaker is automatically swit-

ched off when a plug is inserted into this jack.

2.2 REAR PANEL:

MAINS: Connect the included Euro-norm mains cord to this

socket. Ensure the amp's voltage rating matches your local AC

voltage rating before you plug the cord into the wall socket.

3.0 STANDARD SETUP/

4.1 SELECTING CHANNELS

Use the CHANNEL SELECT switch or an external footswitch to

change channels.

NOTE: Before using a footswitch, set the CHANNEL

SELECT switch on front panel of the amp itself to the CLEAN

position.
