Kustom V50 Musical Instrument Amplifier User Manual


 
1) Lead—The Lead footswitch selects between Rhythm and Lead Chan-
nels on the amplier, regardless of the setting of the channel selector
switch on the front panel. If the LEAD word is backlit, then the Lead
channel is active. If the LEAD word is unlit, then the Rhythm channel is
active.
2) Boost—The Boost footswitch selects the adjustable volume boost as
determined on the back of the Defender amplier. This gives up to 10dB
of “master” volume boost and the tone is optimized for solos. It affects
either channel, and when the Boost is backlit, the Volume Boost control
on the amp is functional.
3) Effect—The Effect footswitch activates the Reverb on the V50, and
is switch assignable for Reverb or Tremolo on the V100. When Effect is
backlit, the appropriate effect is activated.
Emergency Mono Cable Use: If the stereo cable or footswitch were dam-
aged, a regular instrument amp cable or single button footswitch can be
used to provide limited capability. If a mono cable were used, the Chan-
nel Selection(Lead) button would select between Rhythm and Lead, but it
would not illuminate. Also, the Boost function would be disabled, and on
the V50, the Reverb would also be disabled. On the V100, either Reverb
or Tremolo could still be used since selecting the other with the footswitch
assign button would disable it.
