Tight + Thick
Add GAIN back into your mix. This
setting blends the maximum
amount of … well, everything!
Yet another color for your
"Tone Palette."
Add TIGHT back into the mix.
This setting provides richness
for Rhythm playing, but keeps a
chunky, punchy tone to cut
through the mix. Notice how well
the amp responds to the
dynamics of your playing.
Turn off TIGHT and slide THICK switch
toward center of Cross. This activates an
additional tube stage, adding a deep, rich
quality to the tone, without sacrificing definition.
This is great for power chords.
Bright
Press switch down toward center of
Cross. Listen to the enhanced Highs
and tighter Bass response.

THE CROSS
USER-MODIFIED PREAMP STAGES
Try the following sequence to gain a
basic understanding of the Cross
functions. Keep in mind that all
switches may be added or omitted
in any combination -- there is no
"right way" to set them. Experi-
ment to find the sounds that work
for your specific application.
Keep in mind that your EQ
controls (Bass, Middle, Treble,
Presence) will play a powerful
role in determining your overall
tone, so be sure to adjust them
accordingly.
For the tightest response possible,
don't forget about the TIGHT input
– it maximizes the chunkiness of
your guitar tone.
Tight
Turn off GAIN and slide TIGHT switch toward center of
Cross to activate. This activates an additional tube
stage, providing maximum amount of "chunk" and "cut" on
the attack without compression, which is especially good
for palm muting and fast articulate playing.
Gain
Everything gets heavier with a good dose of
Gain. Slide GAIN switch toward the center
of the Cross to add distortion and more
compression, similar to a traditional gain
boost.
