This means that a crunch tone can be set up on channel 2 and then by switching to channel three can be either overdriven further by increasing the gain control on channel 3 or simply be made louder by increasing the master for channel 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe fitted reverb is a Belton Block, generally acknowledged to one of the best digital reverbs available and is global (ie applies to all channels)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eRear panel features include jacks for speaker connections at 8R and 16R and the 2 way footswitch for channel selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eA buffered effects loop is also fitted with a level control and two recording out jacks which have a tailored response to emulate a 412 cabinet. One of these is a “live” socket which enables the amplifier to still power the speaker, whilst the other is “dead” and mutes the amplifier for silent recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eFinally located on the front panel are the two push switches that change between channels 1 – 2 and 2—3 (note that these switches need to out for the footswitch to work if connected).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ashdown Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56523239948674,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2397\/1117\/files\/FRONT_SX-20C.png?v=1775056780","url":"https:\/\/ashdownmusic.com\/products\/b-stock-sx-20c","provider":"Ashdown Engineering","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
