1) Input 1—This 1⁄4” input jack provides the highest gain through the amp. It
is considered to be the “normal” input.
2) Input 2—This 1⁄4” input jack provides 6dB lower gain through the amp, so it
will allow for a cleaner sound. It can also be useful when using pedals in front
of the amp, since it provides them more headroom through the front end. If
a guitar is plugged into both Inputs, then they will mix together and will both
be 6dB lower in gain.
3) Rhythm Indicator—the word “Rhythm” lights up when the Rhythm chan-
nel is active.
4) Rhythm Volume/Pull Bright—The Rhythm Volume control adjusts the gain
at the input of the amplier when the Rhythm channel is active. It is used in
conjunction with the Rhythm Master to adjust the amount of distortion and
volume for the channel. For cleaner sounds, this control should be set to low-
er settings and the Master set higher...for slight breakup, the controls should
be set in their middle ranges...for heavier distortion, set the Rhythm Volume
higher and the Master lower. Pulling the Pull Bright will increase the high
frequencies of the signal, while also reducing low frequencies for a chunkier,
tighter attack. This function is very useful for ne-tuning the amp’s tone and
feel for different guitars.
5) Rhythm Master—The Rhythm Master sets the overall volume of the
Rhythm channel, and can be used to balance the volumes between it and the
Lead channel. The inclusion of individual Master volumes for each channel
means that the Rhythm channel of the V50 can be used for slight breakup
sounds at lower volumes, rather than strictly being a “clean” channel. These
settings are described in detail in the previous section entitled 4) Rhythm Vol-
ume/Pull Bright.
6) Channel Selector Switch—When the footswitch is NOT plugged into the
footswitch jack, this switch allows the user to select either Rhythm or Lead
channels on the V50. If the footswitch IS plugged in, it over-rides the front
panel switch.
7) Lead Indicator—the word “Lead” lights up when the Lead channel is ac-
tive.
8) Lead Volume/Pull Bright—The Lead Volume control adjusts the gain at the
input of the amplier when the Lead channel is active. It is used in conjunc-
