TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

SPECIFICATIONS

WON’T TURN ON

1.  Make sure AC cord is securely connected at 

both ends.

2.  Verify the power source with something you 

know works.

3.  Check the mains fuse, and replace if necessary. 

If it blows again, refer to qualified service personnel.

NO SOUND

1.  Check input cable.

2.  Check volume controls.

3.  Make sure the amplifier volume and/or gain 

controls are turned up.

4.  Check to see if the effects loop is connected 

correctly.

5.  Check speaker cable to see if it is disconnected 

or shorted.

6.  Make sure that the impedance selector is fully 

engaged in its detent.

7.  Check the standby switch.

8.  Check for a blown speaker.

9.  Check the mains fuse, and replace if necessary. 

If it blows again, refer to qualified service personnel.

1.  Make sure effects send and return cables are 

good and properly connected.

2.  Check footswitch/remote switcher cable (TRS).

3.  Power tubes may be drawing excessive current 

(refer to qualified service personnel).

NOTE: Always set the amplifier to standby when 

taking breaks and turn the amplifier off when 

not in use. This will extend tube life and improve 

long term reliability.

DISTORTION

1.  Check the impedance setting.

2.  Check the speaker cable for shorts.
