Dialing in Channel 1 (Clean)
Your clean channel is capable of a huge array of tones ranging from full, round crystal cleans to vintage classic rock crunch including blues/Texas blues tones and everything in between. Our suggestions?
Start for true clean tones first. Set the gain around 2, dial your tone controls to 5, bring your volume up to the desired level, then work your tone knobs.
