GH100TI Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE SWITCHING ON After unpacking your amplifier check that it is factory fitted with a three pin 'grounded' (or earthed) plug. Before plugging into the power supply ensure you are connecting to a grounded earth outlet. If you should wish to change the factory fitted plug yourself, ensure that the wiring convention applicable to the country where the amplifier is to be used is strictly conformed to.
GH100TI Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Dear Player, Thank you very much for purchasing your new Laney product and becoming part of the worldwide Laney family. Each and every Laney unit is designed and built with the utmost attention to care and detail, so I trust yours will give you many years of enjoyment.

GH100TI Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MASTER VOLUME: Sets the overall ‘loudness’ of the amplifier. It is useful to experiment with the gain and volume controls. If you want a very open, warm and semi overdriven sound try reducing the amount of gain and increasing the volume. This reduces pre-amp gain but pushes the power amp section and makes it work harder giving you a very desirable level of power amp distortion which is a very pleasing “retro” style sound.

GH100TI Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SLAVE OUT: The slave out gives the user an output for driving other amplifiers. This is useful in multi-amp setups where a single preamp can drive several GH power stages. This can be done by simply daisy chaining SLAVE OUT’s to SLAVE IN’s. The Slave Out is an (unbalanced) line level output. SLAVE IN: The Slave in socket provides the user with an input to the power amplifier stage. The Slave in is only operative when the FX switch is in Side Chain or Insert mode.

GH100TI Laney OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS TUBE AMPLIFIER SURVIVAL TIPS Tube amplifiers generally sound much warmer/sweeter than solid state transistor amplifiers but they also need a little more respect due to the fragile glass tubes themselves. The GH100TI uses top quality tubes, four ECC83 preamp tubes, and a matched set of four EL34B-STR output tubes which should give you years of trouble free service, however like all tube amps; it is important to treat it with a certain amount of respect.
