ENGLISH DeltaBass™ Professional Bass Amplifier Congratulations on your purchase of the Peavey DeltaBass™. The DeltaBass was designed keeping in mind the value of a lightweight, powerful bass amp. This amp has that and more. Because the DeltaBass is a lightweight amp, it’s portable enough for any gig or practice. The easyto-use three-band EQ is so versatile you should have no problem quickly dialing up your sound.
NOTE: FOR UK ONLY As the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: (1) The wire which is colored green and yellow must be connected to the terminal which is marked by the letter E, or by the earth symbol, or colored green or green and yellow. (2) The wire which is colored blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N, or the color black.

(9) PRE GAIN CONTROL This knob controls the input gain of the preamplifier. The input gain is at its maximum when this control is turned fully clockwise.
