Kustom Tube12A Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
Features of the Kustom Tube 12
1) Input Jack - A 1/4-inch, 2-conductor input for plugging in your instrument. Its intended for guitar but
will work with other instruments as well.
2) Gain - Adjust this clockwise to increase the amount of distortion generated. Lower levels provide a
blues-type tone, with higher levels delivering increased crunch - perfect for heavier music.
3) Gain On - This switch activates the distortion circuit.
4) Low - Controls the emphasis of bass frequencies. Turn counter-clockwise to decrease lows.
5) Shift - When activated, this control shifts the frequencies to emphasize midrange content. The result
is a fuller, fatter sound.
6) High - Controls the emphasis of treble frequencies. Turn counter-clockwise to decrease highs.
7) Volume - Controls the overall level of the amplifier.
8) Headphone - A 1/4-inch input for headphones. Level is determined by the setting of the VOLUME
control. Automatically disconnects speaker for silent practicing.
9) Jewel Light - Indicates whether the amp is OFF or ON.
10) Power - This switch turns the amp ON or OFF.
