Operation
Connect the bass guitar to the CB-series bass amplifier input using a good quality 6.3mm mono jack lead.
Connect the amplifier to the mains using the appropriate mains IEC lead supplied.
Set all EQ controls to the mid-way position.
With the Master volume turned down, switch on the power switch and gradually increase the Master volume to the
required level.
Increase Gain and play a note, ensuring that the bass guitar’s volume and tone controls are turned up. Continue
increasing Gain until the required signal level and drive amount are achieved.
Adjust the 4 EQ controls to boost or cut the relevant frequency ranges that produce the tonal response required.
Low and Low-Mid cover the bass frequencies, whereas High-Mid and High cover the treble frequencies.
Some experimentation is needed to achieve the best results from the EQ and will depend on how much low frequency
punch and higher frequency detail is needed.
Plugging in a pair of headphones to the 6.3mm Phones jack will allow silent practice by muting the speaker output.
Plugging a personal stereo playback device (like an mp3 player) into the MP3 mini-jack input allows the music to be
mixed in with the bass guitar sound for “play-along” practice.
Before switching off or removing power, turn down the Master volume control.
