WE’RE DELIGHTED THAT YOU CHOSE TO

PURCHASE AN HUGHES & KETTNER

EDITION TUBE!

The EDITION TUBE delivers mighty all-tube tone in Hughes &

Kettner’s handy Edition format. Sporting two channels and

a nifty retro design, it mates simple functional elegance to

bodacious tube tone, giving you an easy-to-use, portable

combo that looks and sounds great.

The EDITION TUBE’s Clean channel delivers a remarkably

varied spectrum of vintage sounds from squeaky-clean yet

warm skank to rough-and-ready blues-approved bite, and

all points in between. Taking up where Clean leaves off, the

Lead channel ups the dirt factor, giving you the full

bandwidth, from a throaty growl to creamy,

searing rock lead tone.

Two EL84 tubes toil away in the EDITION TUBE’s engine room

- they’re responsible for the amp’s striking sound. These

power amp tubes are known and cherished by tube freaks

for a unique property - they begin saturating at medium

volume levels, and squeezing the signal with ever so sweet

compression. And that’s why the EDITION TUBE is better sui-

ted for situations that call for moderate volume levels.

However, we’re not talking wallflower here - au contraire, it

can rock out with the best of them. Living up to Hughes &

Kettner’s rep for building ultra-responsive tone generating

machines, the preamp reacts very dynamically to your

touch, and packs plenty of punch when you attack those

strings hard. With a back that is almost fully closed, the

cabinet provides additional bottom end oomph. Twenty

genuine tube-driven watts and the 12" Eminence

RockDriver Cream loudspeaker do their part to give the

EDITION TUBE the kind of sonic wallop you need to be

heard loud and clear at rehearsals and club gigs.

Rounding out the EDITION TUBE’s complement of features

are a variable spring reverb, an effects loop, and a

connector for external cabinets. But then that shouldn’t

come as a huge surprise because any Hughes & Kettner

amp boasting the “EDITION” mark of distinction promises a

touch of class.

HERE’S YOU WISHING YOU LOTS OF FUN WITH

THE TONE OF YOUR EDITION TUBE!

EDITION TUBE-MANUAL

1.0 JACKS AND CONTROLS

INPUT: Plug your guitar into this jack.

FOOTSWITCH: Plug a footswitch (e.g. the Hughes & Kettner

TTY-1) into this jack when you want to change channels

remotely. If you choose to use a footswitch, make sure that

the CHANNEL SELECT switch is set to the CLEAN channel

(yellow LED lights up).

VOLUME: This knob controls the CLEAN channel’s volume

and saturation levels. Depending on your guitar’s output

level, you can dial in fat, crunchy sounds at higher VOLUME

settings.

YELLOW CHANNEL SELECT LED: Lights up to indicate the

CLEAN channel is active.

CHANNEL SELECT BUTTON: This selector lets you change

channels by pushing the button by hand as opposed to

stomping on a footswitch, which is also an option.

RED CHANNEL SELECT LED: This one illuminates up to

indicate the LEAD channel is active.

GAIN: Rotate this knob to determine the amount of

distortion in the LEAD channel.

MASTER: Dial this knob to control the LEAD channel’s

volume level.

EQ SECTION: The Bass, Mid and Treble knobs affect both

channels. Mid and Treble influence one another, an

attribute considered normal and desirable in a tube amp.

Boosting treble decreases midrange honk and vice versa:

jacking up the mids cuts back on the high-end shimmer.

REVERB: Controls the intensity of the on-board reverb effect.

POWER: The EDITION TUBE’s mains power switch.

MAINS IN: Connect the included Euro-norm mains cord to

this socket. Ensure the amp's voltage rating matches your

local AC power rating before you plug the cord into the

wall outlet.

EXTERNAL SPEAKER: Use this jack to connect external

speaker enclosures with an overall impedance ranging

from 8 to 16 ohms (an 8-ohm cabinet, for example, would

work nicely). The internal loudspeaker remains in operation.

RETURN: Connect this jack to the output of your signal

processor.

SEND: Connect this jack to the input of your signal

processor.

EDITION TUBE-MANUAL

2.0 STANDARD SETUP/CABLE CONNECTIONS

3.0 OPERATION

3.1 SELECTING SOUNDS

When you’re ready to tweak the settings for both of the

fundamental sounds that the EDITION TUBE has to offer, we

recommend you proceed as follows:

• Dial in all your sound settings with the guitar’s volume

knob turned all the way up so that it give the amp the

highest possible level to work with.

• First concentrate on tuning the CLEAN channel VOLUME

knob to dial in the desired volume level and amount of

overdrive.

• Once you’re satisfied with that sound, activate the LEAD

channel and use the GAIN knob to shape the second

fundamental sound to suit your taste.

• Now adjust the LEAD MASTER to dial in the desired

balance of levels between the LEAD and CLEAN channels.

3.2 USING SIGNAL PROCESSORS

The EDITION TUBE is equipped with a serial effects loop. This

means that the entire preamp signal is routed to the FX

device and processed there. For this reason, use only high-

quality signal processors that do not color the signal

unnecessarily, add undue noise, or impair its sound quality.

CONNECTING EFFECT DEVICES:

• Connect the SEND jack to the processor‘s input, and the

RETURN jack to the processor‘s output.

• To avoid noise, signal loss, and signals from being cut off,

use high-quality patch cords only.

• Make sure the processor is not distorting the signal. Check

the processor's level meter and use its input and output

controls to dial in a suitable level.

• Unless you’re going for bizarre lo-fi effects, distortion

devices are not designed for use in an FX loop. As a rule

of thumb, any kind of device that compresses the signal

should be connected first in the signal chain. Depending

on the type of effect you want to achieve, you may

want to connect a compressor to the amp's input.

• If you are using several processors or stomp boxes, ensure

you connect them in the proper sequence.

Volume pedals, wah-wahs and the like evoke a slightly

different sound and elicit a different response when you

plug them into the EDITION TUBE’s front panel input rather

than the effects loop. Both can sound hip, so which option

you choose is a matter of personal preference.

4.0 REPLACING TUBES, SERVICE AND

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Your EDITION TUBE features factory-equipped EL84 and

12AX7A tubes. They are first burned in and then checked

for their electrical and mechanical properties (micropho-

nics), selected and matched, and then given a final audio

and response test once they have been installed in a

EDITION TUBE. One of the most important steps in the testing

process is power tube matching, i.e. selecting and pairing

tubes with identical characteristics.

WHEN SHOULD YOU REPLACE TUBES?

The tubes in your EDITION TUBE are of exceptionally high

quality and will last extremely long. If you do encounter a

problem, first check whether one of the following situations

apply:

• Is the defect a problem caused by a faulty or worn-out

tube, or is there actually a peripheral problem, for instance

a defective speaker cable that caused damage to the

tube? If this is the case, unless you correct the defect first,

the problem will recur once you have installed a new tube.

• Did the AC power supply fluctuate during operation?

Whereas digital equipment often malfunctions when the

power supply dips below a minimum value, all-tube amps

tend to malfunction when the power level rises above a

certain value. Generators and faulty high-power circuits

often cause these power fluctuations.

• Did a fuse trip although there was no plausible cause?

Aging fuses, particle ionization in the tube or spark-over

due to power spikes may cause this type of problem. In this

case, replacing a tube will not solve the problem.

• Old tubes begin to show signs of wear after they have

been in operation for a very long time: increased micro-

phonics and noise, treble loss, weak power output, muddy

sound, etc. are all indicators of pending tube failure. Power

amp tubes wear out faster than preamp tubes. If you

encounter these problems, replace the tubes. Not only do

old tubes sound bad, they also have a tendency to fail

altogether.

EDITION TUBE-MANUAL

- Refrain from DIY repairs! To be on the safe side, you should

also have a qualified technician replace internal fuses.

5.0 TROUBLESHOOTING

1) The EDITION TUBE is not getting any power:

• Check the mains cable to see if it is connected properly.

• The mains fuse may be defective. Replace the fuse with

another identical fuse. If this fuse also trips, consult your

Hughes & Kettner dealer.

2) The EDITION TUBE is connected properly, but no sound is

audible.

• One or several GAIN and MASTER controls may be turned

all the way down. Dial in a higher setting.

• A short circuit in the speaker signal chain may have

tripped an internal fuse, or one of the power tubes is

defective. Replace the speaker cable and have a

qualified service technician replace the fuse/tube

(identical specifications are a must). Please read Section

4.0 on how to replace tubes correctly.

3) The sound is slightly distorted and you cannot get a truly

clean tone.

• The input section is being overdriven. Depending on the

type of pickups in your guitar, this effect is very

pronounced or may not be audible at all. If you don't

want this slight distortion (although many players prefer a

little dirt in their sound), reduce the volume of your guitar

or volume pedal, turn the screws on the frame of your

pickups so the distance between the strings and pickups

is greater, or try a different combination of pickups.

• If the distortion has an annoying gritty edge to it, there

may be some type of fault due to improper use of a sig-

nal circuit, for instance a speaker output connected to

the EDITION TUBE's input. In this case, consult your Hughes

& Kettner dealer.

4) You have connected an FX processor to the SEND jack

and the signal is totally distorted, even when you have

dialed in a clean sound.

• The LINE OUT signal is overloading the input of the FX

processor. Reduce the processor‘s input sensitivity ("INPUT"

or "GAIN").

5) You have connected an FX processor to the SEND jack of

the EDITION TUBE and the signal's volume level is way too

low.

• The FX processor's output level is set incorrectly. Turn it up.

NOTE: We recommend you refrain from exchanging tubes

solely for sound experimentation purposes. Improper use

runs the risk of damaging your amp and will not be

covered under warranty. Besides, we tested every

conceivable tube option and installed the tube types

that deliver the best possible performance.

KEEP THE FOLLOWING IN MIND WHEN YOU ARE READY TO

REPLACE TUBES:

• We recommend only qualified service personnel replace

tubes.

• Before removing the chassis, ensure the mains cord is

unplugged from the wall socket! Wait at least 2 minutes

for the amp to power down.

• If you are replacing a power amp tube, ensure the repla-

cement tube bears identical specs.

• Use only matched pairs of power amp tubes.

• If you install a matched pair of tubes bearing precisely

the same specs as the original tubes, the amp does not

have to be re-biased. Conversely, if the specs are not

identical, the amp must be biased. Biasing is a complex

procedure requiring special tools and should only be exe-

cuted by a qualified amp technician.

HOW CAN YOU EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR TUBES?

• Never operate the EDITION TUBE without a proper load

(speaker) connected to the output.

Switch the amp off and let the tubes cool down before

transport. A quality flight case is a good investment and is

only slightly more expensive than a complete set of tubes.

• Proper bias and trim are essential. If you find the tubes

need to be replaced too often, consult a qualified

technician.

All other EDITION TUBE components do not require

maintenance. Use a slightly dampened cloth for all metal

parts and the exterior surfaces. Avoid exposure to

mechanical shocks, extreme heat, dust and moisture.

Ensure the cooling vents are not obstructed during

operation.

Here are a few more basic rules that will extend the service

life of your amp enormously if you follow them:

- Make sure all peripheral devices and connecting cables

are in a state of good repair! - Ensure plenty of air can

circulate around the amp’s ventilation slots at all times -

your EDITION TUBE’s life depends on it.- Definitely avoid

exposure to mechanical shocks and extreme heat, dust

and particularly moisture.

- Be very careful about the kind of peripheral devices you

connect to your amp and always check out their specs

before you plug them in. Never connect speaker cabinets

with an impedance (ohm) rating lower than the EDITION

TUBE is designed to handle. Under no circumstances should

you connect devices with high output signal levels (e.g.

power amps) to your amp’s input.

- Be sure the AC power source delivers the current that your

amp is designed to handle before you plug it in. When in

doubt about the local rating, ask the venue’s sound

technician or a stage hand.
