Allow at least 4 inches (60mm) of clearance around the back of the amplifier cabinet. Keep clear of curtains and other flammable materials. Avoid contact with hot tubes. • Do not expose amplifier to moisture, rain, splashed water, beverages, etc. • Be sure that a speaker load is connected to the amplifier before applying power; otherwise damage to the amplifier could result. • Be sure that the amplifier is properly grounded. Do not defeat the ground pin on the AC power input plug. The ground is there to protect the user from the possibility of shock. • Be sure that the AC power (mains) voltage selector switch is configured for the proper voltage (115 volts or 230 volts) for the area you are located before connecting the amplifier to the power source. In the event of a thunderstorm, remove the power plug from the wall socket to prevent damage due to the possibility of lightening strikes. • Turn off power to the amplifier (or place in standby) when changing wiring connections to prevent damage to speakers from possible (and unexpected) loud noises. • WARNING: This amplifier is capable of extreme high decibel output. Always protect your hearing. Your hearing is an invaluable tool in appreciating the tone of EL DIABLO 60. • There are no user-serviceable parts inside the chassis. Refer all service to qualified service personnel. • Always unplug the amp when changing the power or preamp tubes. Never touch the tubes if they are still hot. • Always wait to move the amp after use until the tubes have cooled. This will prevent tube damage and extend tube life. A few minutes should be sufficient. • While we have made every attempt to outline all general cautions, the ultimate responsibility for safe operation of this or any amplifier product rests with the consumer. Common sense should be practiced at all times when using the amplifier. AMPLIFIER OVERVIEW: The GENZ BENZ EL DIABLO 60 contains a unique combination of circuits, including vintage tube circuits, carefully engineered “hot-rod” tube circuits and advanced tone shaping techniques. EL DIABLO 60 delivers unique tone, drive and versatility, which is exemplified by the 10 distinctive tone variations easily accessible through the four button footswitch (included). This flexibility allows endless possibilities to craft your own personal repertoire of tone and expression. The unique PENTODE / TRIODE design of the tube amplifier adds to the versatility of the EL DIABLO 60— essentially 2 different amps in one!! In the 60-watt PENTODE MODE the amp responds with its bold, “spanky”, rich clean tone and classic overdrive sustain, all the way into aggressive Hi Gain brutality and all points in between. With the 30-watt TRIODE MODE the El Diablo 60 produces a more vintage, fuller, fatter tone with a more dynamic response and increased power tube break-up with a darker complexity. Experimentation with all of this flexibility will reward you with a tremendous tonal pallet for your specific playing style or song selection. 2 The WARM CHANNEL offers full, round pristine clean response cascading up to pushed vintage gain with warm upper mid break-up, rich bass and abundant sustain. The HOT CHANNEL takes you from rich classic tube break-up to full-bodied hi gain splendor. The option of a dynamic or compressed setting insures the amplifi er responds to your every touch; no squashed tone or harsh buzziness here!! Both channels utilize our ACTIVE TONE NETWORK for signal shaping of the guitar signal to the tube power amp. This unique tone network is an incredible tool for enhancing your guitar tone. Each frequency offers a ...
