5MM

Guitar Power Amplifier

Congratulations on your purchase of the 5MM guitar amplifier! The 5MM produces

a formidable 2.5 watts and is small enough to fit in your pocket. The 5MM’s sweet

sound and extreme portability will make it an integral part of any rig where a high-

powered amp is not required. The 5MM was designed with the guitar in mind and

can be used alone, or with your favorite overdrive or preamp driving the input to

the 5MM. The 5MM also sounds great with other instruments such as bass and

keyboard. Please read this manual to learn the correct use of the 5MM.

- CONTROLS and JACKS -

VOLUME CONTROL – This knob controls the volume or loudness of the

amplifier. As you turn the VOLUME knob clockwise, the 5MM’s output gets louder.

At a certain point in the VOLUME knob’s travel, the output will start to overdrive,

at this point you are beginning to exceed 2.5 Watts on your loudest notes. Turning

the VOLUME knob further clockwise will produce a more overdriven sound which

is the result of pure power amp saturation.

BRIGHT/NORM CONTROL – When engaged, the BRIGHT switch adds a

subtle top boost or presence to your signal. When in the NORM position, the top

boost is defeated.

INPUT Jack – Plug the output of your guitar, effects pedals or any other

instrument into the INPUT jack using a standard ¼” instrument cable. The input

impedance presented at the INPUT jack is 2 M.

8 – 16  OUTPUT Jack – Connect the 5MM’s OUTPUT jack directly to a

speaker cabinet. 8  – 16  only.

WARNING: NEVER CONNECT THE OUTPUT OF THE 5MM TO THE INPUT OF

ANOTHER AMPLIFIER, AN EFFECTS PEDAL, MIXER, COMPUTER, COMPUTER

INTERFACE OR OTHER SIMILAR DEVICE.

WARNING: THE 5MM IS A POWER AMP, NOT AN EFFECTS PEDAL. Do not

connect the output of the 5MM to the input of another amplifier, effects

pedal, mixer, computer, computer interface or other similar device. Connect

the output of the 5MM to an 8 -16  speaker cabinet ONLY.

SPEAKER CABLE: We recommend using a speaker cable between the 5MM and speaker cabinet as you would with any power amplifier, though you can get away with using an instrument cable if in a pinch. The impedance of the speaker cabinet must be rated between 8  and 16  ( = ohms). 8  is the ideal load for the 5MM. Additionally the speaker cabinet must have a power rating equal to or greater than the 5MM’s output power capability. We recommend a speaker cabinet with at least a 10W rating.
