Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Hot' setting delivers the full 14W and a brighter, more aggressive tone, while 'Warm' reduces the power and softens the high frequencies.
The WonderVol is designed to minimize tonal changes when reducing volume, preserving the amp's core sound at lower levels, but some compression is inevitable.
It's not ideal for drastic tonal shifts; this amp excels in delivering variations on a core, warm, slightly overdriven tone – it's less versatile for those needing a wide range of sounds.
