7. RECORDING/HEADPHONE jack

This speaker-emulated jack enables you to connect directly to a mixing console or portable recorder such as a Korg PXR4 or D1600. Additionally, you can hook- up headphones to this jack for a great emulated sound. Turning the VOLUME controls (6) to zero will facilitate “silent” practicing.

8. EXTENSION SPEAKER jack

This jack allows you to connect an external speaker cabinet for added tonal possibilities. Be sure to use a speaker cable (unshielded) when doing this and that you’re using a cabinet that has an impedance not less than 8 Ohms and a Wattage rating of 10 Watts or more.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting an extension speaker here mutes the internal speaker.

For optimum performance we strongly recommend the following:

a)ONLY use an extension cabinet of 8 Ohms impedance or more with this amplifier NOTE:– using speakers with impedances of less than 8 Ohms can damage the amplifier!

b)DO NOT use a speaker cabinet with a Wattage rating that is less than 10 Watts. If you ignore this warning, you could end up blowing a speaker — and that’s definitely not recommended!

c)ALWAYS use a high quality speaker cable (unshielded) to connect an external cabinet — NEVER use a guitar (shielded) cable

d)You must turn off the power before you connect the cable. The amp may be damaged if you connect or disconnect the cable while the power is on.

9. POWER switch

This is where you turn on the power. Please be sure that all connections are made prior to turning this unit on.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Always make sure you turn on the Brian May Special before connecting the BOOSTER OUTPUT to another amplifier to avoid doing any damage to the front end of the amp you are connecting to.
