USING THE SUPER CUB
The Super Cub AG-300 is unlike any other guitar amplifier. Its unique six speaker system
creates a 3 dimensional sound field atypical of guitar amplifiers: 4 speakers facing forward
and two facing up to work as a monitor. The result is that you and fellow players will hear
exactly the same sound as the audience. Because it has a very broad sound field with
immense clarity, you will soon become very comfortable with this and feel more connected
to the sound as if it was the guitar itself responding without any latency.
You can use the AG-300 standing at floor level or you can use the optional tripod stand
( AAD model AG-S1) for enhanced projection. Do not place any object on top of the
cabinet as this will impair the sound quality.
Channel One is ideally suited for electrics and has a warmer somewhat darker tone. This is
due to the internal pre amp modeling based on the response of a vintage 12 inch guitar
speaker. Overdrive pedals can sound rich and tube like even though the amp is all solid
state. The EQ is also tuned to fit magnetic pickups.
Channel Two is tailored for acoustics but if you are looking for ultra clean electric sound,
you can use this channel on solid body guitars too. You can also use a balance low
impedance microphone on this too. The EQ circuit is designed to give a full transparent
sound and has a wider range than that on Channel one.
The internal FX have been selected to give a variety of Echo, Reverb and Chorus sounds
and we suggest you try out each effect with varying the blend control to get the most
suitable effect on your instrument.
There is an option to use external FX pedals with the FX send return jacks.
Although this amp was designed for mainly guitar, it can also be used as a keyboard amp
and will provide the highest fidelity on piano or organ sounds. It can also be used with a
variety of stringed instruments such as violin, cello, mandolin or others with excellent
fidelity.
