SUPER REDHEAD OWNER’S MANUAL
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of an SWR Super Redhead professional bass amp combo. By choosing an SWR bass amplification system you have made a sound decision that could very well be the best of your life!
Just a little humor there, but true nonetheless. For over 15 years, we here at SWR have been putting everything we know about bass into the SWR product line. We’ve earned a reputation for designing and manufacturing gear that has changed the way bassists hear themselves. That’s why you’ll find our bass amps, cabinets and combos on stages and in recording studios all over the world, and why you’ll hear SWR on countless recordings, spanning all genres of music.
Originally introduced in 1988, the SWR Redhead was immediately recognized by discerning bassists as the premier bass combo amplifier for small gig/recording studio use. As the Redhead was the first of its kind (i.e., small and powerful with features geared toward the professional musician), it has inspired many imitations. In 1996, the Redhead was upgraded to include a host of additional fea- tures and renamed the Super Redhead. Upgrades included increased power output and power han- dling, the addition of an internal cooling fan, redesigned front and rear panels, a mute switch for the XLR Output, and a front ported speaker section.
Inside this User Guide you’ll find specifications, features, and usage suggestions for your Super Redhead. New SWR user and seasoned user alike will benefit from reading through this brief but informative manual.
Thanks for choosing the SWR Super Redhead.
Sincerely,
SWR
