SVT-GS Gene Simmons Punisher Important Safeguards and Precautions All Ampeg products are designed for continuous safe operation, as long as common sense is used and steps are taken to help avoid certain problems. Abiding by the following rules can help prevent damage to your amplifier, yourself and others. • The amplifier is equipped with a three-pronged AC power cord. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, NEVER remove or otherwise attempt to defeat the ground pin of the power cord.

SVT-GS Gene Simmons Punisher Some Suggested Settings The setting of the Gain and Master controls depend on your bass, on your playing style, and on how loud you want it! The Graphic EQ can be used to compensate for room acoustics, to “fine tune” your sound, and as a “second channel” to be kicked in when needed for soloes and riffs.
