Controls

Volume • For the cleanest signal, set the volume knob as high as possible,

without causing distortion or feedback.

Bass • Boost here to add depth and weight to the sound of the guitar.

Middle • Turn the middle knob all the way left for a smooth “scooped out”

tone at high volume levels. Raise the middle knob to the right of center to add

midrange “bite” to the sound.

Treble • Boost to cut through the mix. Cut to mellow and subdue the sound.

Brilliance • This slider can add shimmer and sparkle to your sound. It zeros in

on crisp high frequency tones, the realm of harmonics and acoustic string sound.

Lower the brilliance slider to reduce ﬁnger noise and fret buzz.

Notch • Tune the notch ﬁlter to remove low-end feedback. Raise the volume

until feedback occurs, then slowly turn the notch to the right until the feedback is

eliminated.

Tu n e r

Depress the Tuner button to turn the circuit on and off. This digital chromatic

tuner accommodates all standard and alternate tunings and mutes the output

when engaged. It can be activated without an instrument cable connected, in

which case it will turn itself off after three minutes.

Note: the tuner is calibrated to A=440.

Phase

Use the Phase switch to improve bass response at low volume and suppress

feedback at high volume. If feedback occurs, push the Phase switch. If feedback

recurs when you change your location, press switch again.

Power

Plug in the guitar, and the Preﬁx Plus-T switches on. The Battery LED will ﬂash

once at power-up to tell you the preamp is on.

Low Battery Indicator

When the Battery indicator lights steadily, it is time to change the battery. To

conserve power, unplug the instrument and turn off the tuner when not in use.

Replace the battery by ﬂipping open the preamp body using the latch located at

the top of the preamp. Be sure to observe the correct polarity during this instal-

lation.
