Symptom

Action

Amp sounds garbled at all 

volumes

• Try a different speaker, especially if headphones 

sound clear. Caution: reduce MASTER volume 

until sound level has been confirmed.

• Try plugging instrument directly into the amp, 

and unplugging Effects Loop. If sound is then 

clean, check outboard processing for problems.

Weak or fluctuating audio

• Plug guitar directly into amp and unplug the FX 

Loop to isolate bad pedals. Check connections 

and power supply or batteries in pedal board.  

• The amplifier almost never “loses power” 

without completely stopping.  Look for external 

causes. 

Desire clean tone, getting 

too much overdrive dis-

tortion

Desire overdrive tone, not 

getting enough overdrive

• Turn down MASTER and increase GAIN until 

the desired overdrive is obtained, then reset 

MASTER to desired loudness.
