Using Built-In Distortion Effects on Guitar Amps
Hi, I’m Tim Ambrosuis and I am a professional guitar technician for Expert Village.com. I am going to explain to you how to change channels on your electric guitar amplifier. On this what you have are two channels. You have your clean channel and you have your distortion channel. In order to change over from your clean channel where we are at right now to your distortion channel, there are two ways. First way there is a button on the front of the amplifier. You just press that and you go over your distortion channel. The other way is to plug in a foot switch on the back of the amplifier and simple as that you just press that and there you go, it is as simple as that.
