800Hz.Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is unaltered. Turning it counterclockwise, the low will be rolled off -12db.
8.) Preamp Select Switch- this switch selects which preamp style you are using. It will switch between the PUNCH and
GRIND.
9.) High - this is the high frequency tone control for the microphone channel. It is passive and set to shelve frequencies
at 3KHz. Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is unaltered Turning it counterclockwise, the highs will be rolled off -
12db.

at 1KHz. Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is unaltered. Turning it counterclockwise, the low will be rolled off -
12db.
15.) Preamp Switch - when engaged, this switch will boost the treble sound of the Rhythm channel. It boosts 3 KHz by
+6 db.
16.) Treble - this is the high frequency tone control. It is passive and set to shelve frequencies at 3KHz on the instrument
channel. Turning it fully clockwise, the signal is unaltered. Turning it counterclockwise, the highs will be rolled off -

Back Panel - (not pictured)
Speaker Out - this is a 2 conductor 1/4" speaker output jack. Rating is 4 ohms minimum.
Line Output - this is a 2 conductor 1/4" line output jack. This will allow an external amplifier or mixing board to be
supplied with the signal from this amp.
Effects Loop I/O - This is an effects Insert jack. Tip send (preamp out) and ring return (power amp in).
Footswitch Jack - this is a 3 conductor 1/4" jack. This is for hooking up a footswitch to switch channels and to turn
on/off the effects section.
B.A.L.L.S. (Ballistic Audio Loudness Level Saturation)- adjust this clockwise to increase the amount of distortion
you Add lower ranges of the control, you get a less distorted sound, a "bluesy"tone .As you increase the gain, you
add Tremendous amounts of distortion to the signal for a harder edged "crunch"tone.
