Depending on the type of cord and its shielding, you may occasionally encounter
interference from sources such as radio stations or powerful magnetic fields. When
this occurs, try connecting your guitar to the amp using different cords. What's more,
to minimize signal degradation due to high-frequency loss, use the shortest cords
feasible (as a rule, the shorter the cord, the less susceptible it is to high-frequency
attenuation).

Clean channel is active.
In Clean mode, single-coil pickups may begin saturating the preamp when the knob is

want squeaky clean tone (a pure guitar tone without preamp distortion, that is),
simply back off the Gain control knob accordingly. Refer to the leaflet "Sound Setting
Samples" for additional practical hints from Victor Smolski concerning the topic "Clean
