"Hi, my name is Tim Ambrosuis and I am a professional guitar technician for Expert Village.com. I am going to explain to you some of the amplifiers have built in effects on them and how you use them. On this certain amplifier just like most, you will have like a level control on it which controls how much the effect comes through. It is set on reverb right now. You are going to have just a little bit of reverb. You can turn it up and have a lot of reverb. What this one does is it will have several effects on it so you just turn the knob to the certain effect like say tremila. You can’t really hear it too much with the tremila, it is heavy with the reverb at that setting but with the tremila you don’t hear it as well so you want to turn it up a lot. Now you get a reverb and tremila sound. You can do things such as the delay and things like flander and delay and reverb and delay and reverb and flander. "
