Channel 1

Channel 1 is the lead/overdrive channel and is selected

in one of two ways, via the Channel Select switch on

the control panel, or via the Channel Select button on

the supplied footswitch* pedal. The Yellow LED,

located next to the Channel 1 Volume control,

illuminates when Channel 1 is active.

*Note: Plugging in the footswitch deactivates the panel-

mounted Channel and Boost controls.

Channel 1 uses a Gain control in conjunction with a

Volume control to control the amount of tube-based

overdrive and volume. The Gain control is used to

adjust the amount of overdrive, while the Volume control

allows you to set the actual loudness of the amplifier.

A boost circuit is provided to help achieve 'a-bit-more'

overdrive for leads. The boost can be selected via the front

panel switch or through the supplied footswitch pedal. A

Red LED illuminates to indicate when the boost is active.

The Treble, Bass, and Middle tone controls are to help you

shape your sound. They are post-gain and pre-volume.

These are active only when Channel 1 is selected.

Provides deep midrange cut and bass boost to get that

deep "chunk" sound.

Channel 2

Channel 2 can be used as the clean channel and thus

has no Gain control. In other respects the layout is the

same as that of Channel 1, with independent Volume

and Treble, Bass, and Middle tone controls. When

channel 2 is active the green LED located next to the

Channel 2 volume control is illuminated.

B B r r i i g g h h t t n n e e s s s s S S w w i i t t c c h h

Channel 2 includes a Brightness switch that activates

a circuit to provide additional treble boost to help make

your tone sparkle.

Adds deep bottom and sparkling highs to Channel 2.

Master Controls

Controls the overall level of both channels.

The Master Control section also includes a rotary

Reverb control that adjusts the overall reverb level for

both channels. The YCV80/YCV80Q is equipped with

a long-style Accutronics® dual-spring reverb for

authentic vintage reverb.

This switch controls the high voltage power being

supplied to the tubes. This mode effectively keeps the

tubes warmed up when the amp is not in use. The large,

jewel indicator on the front panel glows Red when the

amp is fully powered-up and changes to Yellow when

the high voltage circuit has been turned off. Putting the

amp into Standby mode (i.e. during set breaks) shuts off

the amplifier output stage and effectively increases tube

life by reducing wear on the tubes.

The Send and Return jacks of the YCV80/YCV80Q

allow convenient use of an external effect unit. Simply

connect a ¼ inch phone cable to the Send jack of the

YCV80 and then connect this cable to the Input of your

effects unit. To send the processed signal back to the

YCV80, connect the output of the effects unit to the

Rtn jack of the YCV80/YCV80Q. The Trim pots enable

fine adustments to the signal being sent to and

returning from the external effects.

The ¼ inch TRS Send jack is used as part of an

effects loop, in conjunction with the Rtn jack. The -

10dBu output is ideal for most guitar effects pedals

and professional signal processors. You can also use

this output to slave the YCV80/YCV80Q with another

guitar amplifier by plugging into the Rtn jack of the

destination amplifier that will be the slave.

The ¼ inch TRS Return jack is used as your return

jack for your effects loop. It accepts an input signal that

is passed to the power amplifier, so it can be used as a

power amp in. The Master Control section regulates the

signal, so Reverb can be added as well as Presence.

The Loop-Thru jack is a "send" and "return" all in one

jack. As a patch point it puts the connected effects in

series with the preamp and power amp sections of the

YCV80/80Q. To connect an effect here, use a "Y

Insert" cable configured as follows; ¼ inch stereo (TRS)

male to two ¼ inch mono male jacks. Our model PC-

6ISPH can be used for this purpose.

Connecting a footswitch to the ¼ inch TRS Footswitch

jack deactivates the control panel mounted Channel

Select and Boost switches. These functions are then

activated exclusively by the pedal. The included

footswitch features dual-latching switches, each with a

separate LED indicator.

The switching is accomplished with internal relays

so there is no audiable noise flowing through the

footswitch cable. Footswitch-induced noise is never an

issue. The YCV80 is compatible with most aftermarket

latching dual-footswitch pedals.

The chassis mounted ¼ inch jacks allow convenient

connection of a 4 ohm external speaker cabinet. If you

disconnect the internal 12 inch Celestion® speakers,

you can connect up to two 4 ohm external cabinets.
