Bennington Reverb
It’s really pretty simple to use…
Let’s start from the way we’re actually going to use the amp.
1.
The input jack is where you plug in your instrument cable.
2.
There 4 knobs on the amplifier, one that controls the overall Volume of the amp, Treble and Bass
controls and a Reverb control.
3.
With both the Bass and Treble controls set at 5 and a half the tonal response of amplifier is I very
close to flat. The Bass control allows you to boost or cut low frequency response. The Treble
control boosts or cuts high frequency response.
4.
The Reverb control varies the amount of the wet signal (reverberation).
5.
The pilot lamp is also located on the top panel and is illuminated when the amplifier is powered
on.
6.
Make sure that the amp is plugged into a grounded outlet at 120 Volts A.C (Standard U.S.
Electricity)
7.
Flip the power switch to the position away from “Power Off” and the pilot lamp will begin to
glow.
8.
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…
9.
Flip the standby switch to the position away from “Standby Off”
10. Next, turn the volume up to the desired level of overall loudness and play!!
