Using the Ampeg Rocket Bass RB - 115 is a breeze. First, connect your bass guitar to the input. You can use the 3 - band EQ and Ultra Hi/Ultra Lo switches to adjust the tone to your liking. If you want that warm growl, turn on the Super Grit Technology overdrive and use the Grit and Level controls to fine - tune it. For practicing, plug in your external audio source like a phone or MP3 player to the auxiliary input and use the headphone output to avoid disturbing others. When performing, you can connect an external speaker via the extension speaker output or directly to a P.A. system using the XLR direct output. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Regularly check the connections to make sure they are secure. If you use a footswitch for the SGT overdrive, handle it gently. And remember, always turn off the amp before making any connections or disconnections to protect the equipment.
