Operating the Amplifier
The control panel of the ValveTrain 205 looks like this:
It’s really pretty simple to use…
Let’s start from the way we’re actually going to use the amp.
1.
There are 2 inputs marked High and Low. The High input is higher gain than the Low input. Use
the one you like best.
2.
There are 2 knobs on the amplifier, one that controls the overall Volume of the amp, and the Tone
control, which allows for removal of highs from the overall sound of the amp.
3.
The pilot lamp is also located on the top panel and is illuminated when the amplifier is powered
on.
4.
Make sure that the amp is plugged into a grounded outlet at 120 Volts A.C (Standard U.S.
Electricity)
5.
Flip the power switch to the position marked “Power On” and the pilot lamp will begin to glow.
Leave the volume setting set to 1.
6.
WAIT AT LEAST 30 SECONDS. The tubes in this amp need a little time to warm up… You
could shorten the life of the tubes by rushing things…
7.
Plug your guitar cable into one of the input jacks on the left side of the control panel. (Any one
will do, but you might as well start with “High”)
8.
Next, turn the volume up to the desired level of overall loudness and play!!
That’s about it…
