Abstract

An amplifier for electric guitar including a plurality of foot switch selectable preamplifier channels which can be set to provide differing sonic characteristics, and also including a power amplifier section for driving a loudspeaker that can be switched between at least two different power or performance capabilities. User operable switching dedicated to at least one of the preamplifier channels is provided to select preferred power amplifier parameters in conjunction with differing channel voicings. Thus, differing preferred power amplifier characteristics may be pre-set and assigned to individual preamplifier channels and called up automatically in conjunction with the remote channel selection.
