This section describes the front panel ports and controls of your bass amp from left to right.
The descriptions apply to both BH550 and BH800 – the only difference between these amps is their power.

1. INPUT jack
You can connect an active or passive bass to
this ¼” input jack. The input stage of your bass
amp is designed to adapt to any type of pickup.
2. GAIN knob and CLIP LED
The input gain should be set to the highest pos-
sible level without overloading the input stage.
To find the correct setting,
►
plug in your bass and play,
►
turn up the GAIN knob until the PEAK LED
occasionally lights up, then
►
reduce the gain slightly.
When set, simply turn up the MASTER volume
knob to start playing.
3. TUNER
Your bass amp’s integrated tuner allows you to
easily tune a 4, 5 or 6-string bass.
The B, E, A, D and G LEDs indicate which strings
you are currently tuning. When the D and G LEDs
are lit, you are tuning the C string.
The string is in perfect tune when both green
LEDs to the right of the string LEDs are lit.
The tuner is always active.
