IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electrical products, basic cautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than
the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding plug. The wide blade or third prong is provided for your
safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point they exit
from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories provided by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is
used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such
as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15. Never break off the ground pin. Write for our free booklet “Shock Hazard and Grounding.” Connect only to a power supply of the
type marked on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
16. If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
17. Note for UK only: If the colors of the wires in the mains lead of this unit do not correspond with the terminals in your plug‚
proceed as follows:
a) The wire that is colored green and yellow must be connected to the terminal that is marked by the letter E‚ the earth symbol‚
colored green or colored green and yellow.
b) The wire that is colored blue must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter N or the color black.
c) The wire that is colored brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or the color red.
18. This electrical apparatus should not be exposed to dripping or splashing and care should be taken not to place objects
containing liquids, such as vases, upon the apparatus.
19. The on/off switch in this unit does not break both sides of the primary mains. Hazardous energy can be present inside the
chassis when the on/off switch is in the off position. The mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the
disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
20. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to
noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient
time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible
noise level exposures:
Duration Per Day In Hours Sound Level dBA, Slow Response
8 90
6 92
4 95
3 97
2 100
1 1⁄2 102
1 105
1⁄2 110
1⁄4 or less 115
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. Ear plugs or protectors to
the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a permanent hearing loss, if
exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is
recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be
protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation.

Delta Blues™
Single Unit Guitar Amplifier
The 15" speaker, borrowed from its big brother, the 50-watt Blues Classic®, is specially voiced for rich, full range tone. It
has both more low end and more high end than the 12" speaker in the Classic® 30. The extra high end also makes for an
exceptional sounding acoustic guitar amp—with a bluesy edge.
An obvious choice for an external speaker would be the Classic® 115E, which uses the same speaker in a large cabinet. This
combination creates a huge sound that is more than capable of keeping up with a rhythm section in a small club.
Before you begin playing through your amplifier, it is very important to ensure that the product has the proper AC
line voltage supplied. You can find the proper voltage for your amp printed next to the IEC line (power) cord on the
rear panel of the unit. Each product feature is numbered. Refer to the front panel diagram in this manual to locate the
particular features next to its number.
Please read this guide carefully to ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of your amplifier.
FEATURES:
• 30 watts RMS into 16 or 8 ohms
• All-tube (three 12AX7 and four EL84 tubes)
• 2-channel preamp
• Blue Marvel® Speakers
• Tremolo with speed and intensity
• Pre- and post-gain controls on lead channel
• Normal volume control on clean channel
• 3-band passive EQ (bass, middle, treble)
• Boost switch
• Master reverb
• Footswitch selectable channel switching and tremolo
• Effects loop
• Tweed-covered cabinet with chrome-plated chassis
• External speaker jack
Ventilation: For proper ventilation, allow 24" clearance from nearest combustible surface.

Power Switch (1)
Switch to “ON” position to turn on.
Pilot Light LED (2)
Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the unit.
Tremolo Speed (3)
The speed control determines the rate at which the signal is modulated. This control varies the speed of the Tremolo master
oscillator and should provide any speed desired for modern music. Clockwise rotation of the speed control increases the
speed of the modulation of the tremolo. The Tremolo feature is defeatable from a remote footswitch.
Tremolo Intensity (4)
The intensity control is used to vary the amount of amplitude modulation of the clean signal. It can be adjusted from barely
perceptible to dramatic modulation. Clockwise rotation of the intensity control increases the depth of the tremolo.
Effects Return (5)
Input for returning signals to external effects or signal processing equipment.
Effects Send (6)
Output for supplying signal to external effects or signal processing equipment.
Treble, Middle AND Bass EQ (7)
Passive tone controls that regulate high, mid, and low frequencies, respectively.
Boost Switch (8)
Boosts the overall system gain. Depress to the "in" position to activate.
Reverb (9)
Reverberation is an echo effect. Rotate clockwise to increase the effect.
Post Gain (10)
Controls the overall volume level of the Lead channel. The final level adjustment should be made after the desired sound has
been activated.
Pre Gain (11)
Controls the input volume level of the Lead channel.
Channel Select Switch (12)
Allows selection of the Lead or Normal channel.
Note: Channel selection may also be achived by the remote footswitch. If remote selection is desired, the channel switch must
be in the "in" (Lead) position.

connect the guitar to the amplifier.
External Speaker Jack (15)
Provided for the connection of external speaker cabinet. Minimum total impedance is 16 ohms.
Remote Switch Jack (16)
Provided for the connection of the optional remote footswitch. Footswitch is used to select the Lead or Normal
channels and defeat tremolo. When using remote footswitch, always insert the plug fully (second click) to ensure
proper operation.
