V100H Tube Guitar Amplifier with Reverb
3
Introduction
Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of a Crate V100H tube guitar amplifier. This
rugged amplifier packs a whole lot of vintage tube sound and classic spring reverb into its
heavy-duty cabinet, providing you with an amp that is portable and easy to operate, yet still
produces incredible sounds!
The V-Series amps offer the versatility required for many different musical styles, and have the
unique tonal purity of a hot-rodded tube amp. The V100H is a two-channel amplifier with chan-
nel-switching between clean and overdrive sounds, gain and master volume controls, treble/
mid/bass tone controls, global boost and presence controls, and an inter
nal spring reverb. It
cranks out 100 watts from a set of four EL34 output tubes
.
Like all Crate products, your V100H amplifier is designed by musicians and built using only
the best components. Each amplifier is tested to confirm that it meets our specifications, and
we believe that this amplifier is the absolute best that it can be.
In order to get the most out of your new amplifier, please read this manual before you begin
playing.
And thank you for choosing Crate.
