Lead Channel
The Lead channel starts out with a Tweed style preamp, which drives a proprietary
tone-shaping circuit built around the Mid-Bite control, a unique Tone King feature.
This proprietary circuit transforms the basic tweed tone to more of a crunchy rock tone
as you turn up the mid-bite control. This is accomplished by simultaneously tightening
up the bass, rolling off the very high frequencies, increasing the gain, and developing a
pronounced upper midrange peak. The Mid-Bite control is the key to dialing in your
own particular sound on the lead channel, so you may want to experiment and observe
its effect as you rotate it from 1 to 9.
Here are a few sample settings which demonstrate just a few of the tones available with
