1. Input Jack: This is a ¼-inch, 2-conductor input for plugging in your instrument. It is intended for guitar but will accept
other instruments as well.
2. Volume: This control determines the overall volume level of the amplier. Due to the simplicity of the Defender 5H’s
all-tube circuitry, a wide range of tones can be obtained with the use of this control alone.
For example, when set in its lower ranges, the sound is clean and snappy. As the Volume control is turned up, light
overdrive is generated by the amp’s all-tube circuitry. This overdrive occurs naturally and is not created by any internal
distortion circuit. As the Volume control is turned higher (clockwise), you’ll hear increased natural drive and compression
that is great for crunchy rhythms and sustaining guitar solos. In essence, the Defender 5H generates classic overdriven
tube amp tone but at lower, more manageable volume levels. (Although you may be surprised by the amount of volume
that the Defender 5H can generate, so watch your ears!)
3. Power Switch: This dual-function component is both an ON/OFF power switch and a status indicator light. When
illuminated, it shows that your amplier is ready to be played. To turn your amplier on, press switch upward. To turn
amp off, press switch downward.
Note: After the power switch is turned on, the tubes must warm up for approximately one minute before you will hear
sound from your amplier.
