User manual FENDER 94 TWIN-AMP

[. . . ] THE SOUND THAT CREATES LEGENDS Twin, Amp Owner s Manual 047775 P/N TYPE: PR266 Introduction The Fender TWINTM is the next step up in the evolution of High Performance instrument amplification. The new TWIN is a direct descendent of classic tube amps such as the Fender Twin Reverb®, and 410 Bassman®, which have shaped today's world of guitar amps. The features of the new Fender TWIN provide flexibility rarely found in tube amplifiers. Channel One is the traditional Fender design which offers the vintage sound as well as contemporary sounds with the use of switch-selectable Gain and Master Volume controls. [. . . ] When nothing is plugged into the EFFECTS RETURN jack (located on the rear panel), the MIX control will have no effect on the sound. Also see the "EFFECTS SELECT" switch in the Twin Rear Panel Functions section of this manual. REVERB -- Adjusts the amount of reverb present in Channel One and Channel Two. When the footswitch is connected, the reverb can be turned on and off remotely. Also see the "REVERB SELECT SWITCH" in the "Twin Amp Rear Panel Functions" section of this manual. PRESENCE -- This is a true vintage-style PRESENCE control that affects the way the power amplifier responds to upper high frequencies. As the control is turned clockwise, the power amplifier (in interaction with the speaker load) enhances upper highs, giving the Twin's overall sound a "sparkling" quality. PILOT LAMP -- When this lamp is illuminated, the amplifier is receiving power. Should the lamp burn out, turn off the amplifier and unplug it from its power source, unscrew the red jewel, and replace the lamp with type T47 light bulb. Twin Rear Panel Functions (Fig. FUSE -- The fuse is in the AC supply of the amplifier and will protect the amplifier and the operator in the event of an electrical fault. Fig. 2 If a fuse blows, it should be replaced only with a fuse in accordance with the listing at the fuse holder. If the amplifier repeatedly blows fuses, it should be checked out by a qualified technician. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should a fuse of a different type or higher rating, or a fuse bypass be used, as this could damage the equipment and present a serious safety hazard. STANDBY SWITCH -- When in the STANDBY position, the amplifier is off; however, the tube filaments are left on as to eliminate warm-up time, provided that the POWER SWITCH (item B) is ON. Use of this feature during short breaks versus using the POWER SWITCH will increase tube life. OUTPUT SWITCH -- When in the OUTPUT HIGH position, the maximum output power of the Twin is set to 100 watts RMS, when in the OUTPUT LOW position, 25 watts RMS. The OUTPUT HIGH position is normally used in most applications, and the OUTPUT LOW position is useful for simulating a smaller amplifier, especially when the power amp is overdriven. EFFECTS LEVEL -- This switch directly affects the signal level appearing at the EFFECTS SEND JACK (item F) by boosting or attenuating the signal being sent to the effects. Use the highest setting possible that does not produce distortion for the best low noise performance. F. EFFECTS SEND JACK -- Provides an unbalanced output signal from the preamp, pre-reverb. EFFECTS RETURN JACK -- This jack provides a pre-reverb return from effects gear. Plugging into this jack makes the MIX control on the front panel active. [. . . ] For example, by connecting a 4 ohm speaker to each jack, the total load is 4+4=8 ohms. PARALLEL JACK (item S) for a total of 4 ohms, with the IMPEDANCE SWITCH set accordingly. ) R. For proper operation, this jack should always be used first as connection to the primary speaker(s). If this jack is used alone, set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch (item T) to equal the total speaker load impedance connected to it. [. . . ]
