WARP 7™!
21st century metal is all about detuned guitars,
ponderous & ominous riffs, big & bold effected
clean sounds. No wonder that yesteryear’s
amplification can’t cut it in this brave new world
of sound. The WARP 7™ is designed specifically to
do the sound, vibe and feel of detuned guitars
justice. No quarter expected, none granted. The
WARP channel will hammer out every hard-as-nails
riff you send its way. Its CLEAN channel also packs
a mighty wallop; even the wildest effect sounds
slice through loud and clear. Both channels sport
dedicated 3-band EQs, letting you dial in great
tone and extreme contrasts, from nasty, paint-
peeling riffs to glassy & glossy clean arpeggios
and chord work. With its beefy 100-watt power
amp, the WARP 7™ is the ideal tool for winning
friends and influencing people; particularly your
neighbors and parents are sure to be delighted.
The combo is loaded with Celestion
®
Hot 100
speakers and the 4x 12"cabinet with Celestion
RockDriver Junior speakers. Both are powerhouse
setups that your musical message across most
emphatically!
HERE’S WISHING YOU LOTS OF SUCCESS
AND FUN WITH THE TONE OF YOUR
WARP 7™!

THINGS TO DO BEFORE OPERATING THE AMP
You’re probably champing at the bit, impatient to
plug in and pound out your first riff. Before you do,
though, be sure to read these guidelines
thoroughly. They have been known to ensure
long life for many an amp.
• Check out the voltage rating displayed next to
the WARP 7™'s MAINS INPUT and make sure it
matches your local mains current before you
plug in.
• Make sure plenty of air can circulate around
your amp's ventilation ducts.
• Place the amp on a sturdy, secure base and
avoid exposing it to mechanical shocks and
extreme temperatures that could endanger the
device or your and others' safety.
• The manufacturer disclaims any liability or
responsibility whatsoever for any damage or
defect to this and other devices resulting from
misuse.
