Frontman 25R Front Panel Functions
A. INPUT - Plug your guitar in here.
B. VOLUME - Adjusts the overall loudness of the
NORMAL CHANNEL.
C. GAIN - Adjusts the amount of preamp gain in the
DRIVE CHANNEL. Cleaner sound is achieved at lower
gain settings; high gain settings will produce more
sustain and distortion. This control works in
conjunction with the DRIVE VOLUME control (item E) to
set the overall loudness of the DRIVE CHANNEL.
D. GAIN SELECT - Activates the DRIVE CHANNEL.
E. DRIVE VOLUME - Indicates the DRIVE CHANNEL is
selected.
F. DRIVE CHANNEL INDICATOR - Adjusts the
overall loudness of the DRIVE CHANNEL.
G. TREBLE - Adjusts the amount of boost or cut in

affecting the signal level. High MID settings will
provide emphasis in the midrange frequencies
whereas a lower setting will notch the midrange.

low frequency range.
J. REVERB - Adjusts the amount of reverb present
in both the NORMAL and DRIVE CHANNELS.

connection for the optional remote footswitch to
select between the NORMAL and DRIVE CHANNELS. For
proper operation of the footswitch, the GAIN
SELECT switch (item D) should be in the out position.

output to an external speaker enclosure. The
enclosure must have a minimum impedance of 8Ω.
Using this jack automatically disables the internal
speaker. DO NOT PLUG HEADPHONES IN HERE.

a standard stereo or mono pair of headphones for
private listening. Using this jack automatically
disables the speaker. This jack can also be used as
an unbalanced line output by using either a stereo or
mono 1/4" phone plug connection. CAUTION:
PROLONGED LISTENING AT HIGH LEVELS MAY BE HAZARDOUS
TO YOUR HEARING AND POSSIBLY CAUSE HEARING DAMAGE

power ON and OFF. When the switch is OFF, the
