Congratulations on your purchase of the all new
Series. This amp
represents years of research on vacuum tube emulation, resulting in a totally new Express. The
has been redesigned, using patent-applied for technology that redefines tubelike distortion
and harmonic generation in solid-state amps.
The new Dynamics circuitry, also awaiting several patents, creates the long sought for tube power
compression phenomenon. This, when combined with the
amp simulation to date. The compression effect is increased by turning the
down, which lowers the power level the amp puts out.
circuitry, yields the closest tube
Dynamics control
To further enhance the performance of the Express, an added external speaker jack is included. The
speaker has been upgraded to a Sheffield, and an effects loop is included to allow for greater flex-
ibility.

HIGH GAIN INPUT
Used for most electric guitars. It is 6
louder than Low Gain input.
LOW GAIN INPUT
Provided for instruments that have extremely high outputs, which can result in overdriving (distorting) the High
Gain input. If both inputs are used simultaneously, the output levels are the same (both are Low Gain).
VOLUME
Controls the volume level of the Clean channel.
BRIGHT SWITCH
Provides a preset boost
to treble frequencies. To activate, depress the switch to its “in” position.
CHANNEL SELECT SWITCH
Allows selection of the Lead or Clean channel. The “in” position of the switch selects the Lead channel and the
“out” position selects Clean.
NOTE: Channel selection may also be achieved by the remote footswitch. If remote selection is desired, the
channel switch must be in the “in” (Lead) position.
LOW, MID,
HIGH
Passive tone controls that regulate the low, mid, and high frequencies, respectively.
GAIN
Controls the input volume level of the Lead channel.
THRASH SWITCH
Notches the mid range about

GAIN SWITCH
Boosts the overall system gain. Depress to the “in” position to activate.
LOW, MID, & HIGH
Passive tone controls that regulate the low, mid, and high frequencies, respectively.
POST GAIN
Controls the overall volume level of the Lead channel. The final level adjustment should be made after the desired
sound has been achieved.
REVERB LEVEL
Controls the overall reverb level.
EFFECTS SEND
Output for supplying signals to external low-level effects or signal processing equipment.
EFFECTS RETURN
Input for returning signals from external low-level effects or signal processing equipment.
DYNAMICS CONTROL
Adjusts the power level of the amplifier from
to
power. When set to lower settings, the power com-
pression simulation will be much more pronounced.
POWER LED
Illuminates when AC power is being supplied to the amp.
POWER SWITCH
Depress the switch to the “on” position. The red pilot light (LED) will illuminate indicating power is being
supplied to the unit.

For your safety, we have incorporated a three-wire line (mains) cable with proper grounding facilities. It is not
advisable to remove the ground pin under any circumstances. If it is necessary to use the equipment without
proper grounding facilities, suitable grounding adaptors should be used. Less noise and greatly reduced shock
hazard exists when the unit is operated with the proper grounded receptacles.
EXTERNAL SPEAKER JACK
Provided for connection of external speaker cabinet. Minimum total impedance is 8 ohms. Disconnects internal
speaker when used.
A
REMOTE SWITCH JACK
Provided for the connection of the optional remote footswitch. The footswitch is used to select the Lead or
Normal channels and defeat reverb. When using remote footswitch, always insert the plug fully (second click) to
insure proper operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electric products, basic cautions should always be followed, including the following.
Read all safety and operating instructions before using this product.
All safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
Obey all cautions in the operating instructions and on the back of the unit.
All operating instructions should be followed.
a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, wet basement, etc.
This product should not be used near water, i.e.,
This product should be located so that its position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. It should not be placed flat against a
wall or placed in a built-in enclosure that will impede the flow of cooling air.
This product should not be placed near a source of heat such as a stove, radiator, or another heat producing amplifier.
Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
Never break off the ground pin on the power supply cord. For more information on grounding, write for our free booklet “Shock
Hazard and Grounding.”
Power supply cords should always be handled carefully. Never walk or place equipment on power supply cords. Periodically check
cords for cuts or signs of stress, especially at the plug and the point where the cord exits the unit.
The power supply cord should be unplugged when the unit is to be unused for long periods of time.
If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
Metal parts can be cleaned with a damp rag. The vinyl covering used on some units can be cleaned with a damp rag or an
based household cleaner if necessary. Disconnect unit from power supply before cleaning.
Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the unit through the ventilation holes or any other
openings.
This unit should be checked by a qualified service technician if:
a. The power supply cord or plug has been damaged.
Anything has fallen or been spilled into the unit.
The unit does not operate correctly.
The unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
The user should not attempt to service this equipment. All service work should be done by a qualified service technician.
This product should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by Peavey Electronics.
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
has specified the following permissible noise level
exposures.
Duration Per Day In Hours
Sound Level Slow Response
8
6
4
3
2
1
1
or less
According to
any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss.
Ear plugs or protectors in 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.
