BASS V-AMP LX1B/BASS V-AMP PRO LX1B PRO User Manual ◊ You can dynamically steer the GAIN control via MIDI by using a foot controller board, such as the BEHRINGER MIDI FOOT CONTROLLER FCB1010. This way, you get even closer to the original sound. BRITISH CLASSIC: This amp model, created by leaning closely to a ’59 Marshall Plexi 100-Watt amp, is particularly well suited for creating clean sounds. The amp was used by Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck.
