® BV-50H Guitar Amplifier Congratulations! Your love of performing and driving ambition to be the best have brought you to a turning point in your musical career: the incredible BV-50H guitar amplifier. A powerhouse of an amplifier designed to take you to the top and keep you there. We know something about you: we know you were never impressed with those "toys" that some of your friends called amplifiers.
® BV-50H Guitar Amplifier Introduction: The BV-50H is a feature-packed professional stage performers' amplifier. Rugged construction, reliable American craftsmanship and two powerful channels of pure tube power are some of the trademarks of this new and impressive piece of musician's equipment. This amplifier features two distinctly different 12AX7 tube-driven channels: one with classic tube rhythm sounds and one offering you some of the finest lead and overdrive sounds of any stock amplifier.
® BV-50H Guitar Amplifier The Front Panel: Channel 2: 1. INPUT: Connect your guitar or wireless receiver into this standard 1/4" jack using a shielded instrument cable. 7. GAIN: Adjust the overdrive (distortion) level with this control. In addition to gain changes, this control also modifies the tone. At low and mid gain settings the overdrive is very bluesy. Reducing the volume at the guitar cleans up the signal to be similar to Channel 1.

® BV-50H Guitar Amplifier A Word About Tubes: Vacuum tubes can only last so long. Allowing your amp to cool down before moving it will help prolong the life of the tubes. Even so, after about a year (or sooner if you're on tour or jammin' more frequently than most) you may notice the output of your amp just isn't as "alive" as it used to be. If the sound from your amplifier starts to grow weak, lacks punch, fades up and down, loses highs and lows, gets "funny" (clanking sounds, etc.
