Specifications
The MAVERICK has an individual REVERB control per channel. This enables different amounts of the rich ALL TUBE REVERB to
be mixed with the dry signal of each channel. It is normal for
extreme settings of the REVERB control to slightly alter alter
the character of the channel as the voicing of the REVERB
circuit becomes more dominant in the mix.
The individual channel MASTER controls serve two purposes in the layout of the MAVERICK. FIRST: They serve as level
balancing controls for each of the two channels. This enables a wide range of front end gain settings to be matched to a given listening
level and the level of the other channel.
SECOND: They act as effects send controls for
each channel in the Effects Loop. As with many of
the controls on the MAVERICK, the best results
for balance and tone are usually found in the me-
dium range of this control.
This lonely knob is the MAVERICK’S final Output knob or overall master. After the relative balance of the two channels has been set
with the channel MASTER controls, use this OUTPUT control to increase or decrease the listening volume. It is also the effects return
level control, a point we thought you should know. This design element makes setting up a lot easier and
gives you one less knob to deal with when interfacing to your favorite effects. Optimum setting depends
on the size of the room you wish to rock, but generally the MAVERICK sounds best with a setting
somewhere between
and on the OUTPUT LEVEL control.
Perfect for set breaks... this toggle switch also serves an even more important purpose. In the Standby position the tubes are at idle
so that during power up they may warm up before being put to use. Before Power is switched on make sure the STANDBY switch
is in the Standby position. Wait at least 30 seconds and then switch the STANDBY switch to the “ON” position. This prevents tube
problems and increases their toneful life substantially.
This switch delivers the A.C. power to the MAVERICK. Make sure the unit is grounded (all three terminals of the A.C. cord must be
connected whenever possible to avoid injury to the user as well as to the unit) and that the proper voltage is present. Follow the cold
start procedure described in the above section.
