FRONT PANEL CONTROLS: (Continued) BASS: (Continued) This type of broad band, active rotary control makes it possible to achieve bass characteristics far beyond that of a conventional passive type control.

REAR PANEL CONTROLS: (Continued) GROUND LIFT / POST & PRE / DIRECT OUT: (Continued) PRE gives you just the sound of your instrument and no BIG BL OCK 750 enhancement so that an engineer can create their own sound with your unprocessed signal at the console.
