Kustom 72 Coupe ユーザーズマニュアル

’72 Coupe Front Panel

1) Input 1—This 1⁄4” input jack provides the highest gain through the

amp. It is considered to be the “normal” input.
2) Input 2—This 1⁄4” input jack provides 6dB lower gain through the

amp, so it will allow for a cleaner sound. It can also be useful when us-

ing pedals in front of the amp, since it provides more headroom through

the front end. If a guitar is plugged into both inputs, then they will mix

together and will both be 6dB lower in gain.
3) Rhythm Indicator—the word “Rhythm” lights up when the Rhythm

channel is active.
4) Rhythm Volume/Pull Bright—The Rhythm Volume control adjusts

the gain at the input of the ampliﬁer when the Rhythm channel is active.

It is used in conjunction with the Rhythm Master to adjust the amount

of distortion and volume for the channel. For cleaner sounds, this con-

trol would be set to lower settings and the Master set higher. For slight

breakup, the controls would be set in their middle ranges. For heavier

distortion, set the Rhythm Volume higher and the Master lower. Pulling

the Pull Bright will increase the high frequencies of the signal, while also

reducing low frequencies for a chunkier, tighter attack. This function is

very useful for ﬁne-tuning the amp’s tone and feel for different guitars.
5) Rhythm Master—The Rhythm Master sets the overall volume of the

Rhythm channel, and can be used to balance the volumes between it

and the Lead channel. The inclusion of individual Master volumes for

each channel means that the Rhythm channel of the Coupe can be used

for slight breakup sounds at lower volumes, rather than strictly being a

“clean” channel. These settings are described in detail in the previous

section entitled 4) Rhythm Volume/Pull Bright.
6) Channel Selector Switch—When the footswitch is NOT plugged into

the footswitch jack, this switch allows the user to select either Rhythm or

Lead channels on the Coupe. If the footswitch IS plugged in, it over-rides

the front panel switch.
7) Lead Indicator—the word “Lead” lights up when the Lead channel

is active.
8) Lead Volume/Pull Bright—The Lead Volume control adjusts the gain

at the input of the ampliﬁer when the Lead channel is active. It is used in

conjunction with the Lead Master to adjust the amount of distortion and

volume for the channel. For cleaner sounds, this control would be set to
