E. EQUALIZER - allows adjustment of the tonal
characteristics of the amplifier. Each control provides a
12 dB boost or cut to the low, low mid, high mid, and
high frequency ranges.
F. TAPE IN - Plug-in connection for any line level (500mV)
stereo or mono signal. This signal is mixed into the
power amp along with the instrument signal from the
preamp. It has fixed gain and is unaffected by any of
the front panel controls; however the signal will be
affected by any device inserted between the PREAMP
OUT (item G) and the POWER AMP IN (item H). It is
useful for patching in a CD or tape player, rhythm
machine or other signal source to be used as an
accompaniment for practice or performance. The output
level control of the external signal source is used to
control its own volume while the front panel VOLUME
(item D) control is used for the instrument in order to
obtain a balance.
The front panel contains all items necessary for system
operation and observation. Please read this section of the
manual carefully to make sure you understand all the
operational features for your new FENDER BXR 60 bass
amplifier.
A. INPUT 1 - A high impedance, high sensitivity plug-in
connection for instruments. This input can handle as
much as 2.5 volts R.M.S., and should be used with most
instruments.
B. INPUT 2 - Plug-in connection for instruments. This input
is recommended for basses with active pickups, and
can handle as much as 5 volts R.M.S..
C. MID NOTCH switch - removes midrange, making the
amp sound “punchy”. This switch is good for “thump
and pluck” playing.
D. VOLUME control - adjusts the overall loudness of the
amplifier.
