THAT�S USING YOUR FEET:
FLOOR BOARD
Tuner
Well, Tap Tempo/Tuner switch, really( 18 ). Hold that puppy down for a second or more and � shazam! Instant digital chromatic tuner. All TubeTone and effects processing are bypassed so you can hear those questionably-tuned strings clearly, should you choose to do so. If you�d rather appear more professional, don�t worry; the volume pedal still works. Play a note on your guitar and the Floor Board will show you what it is in that handy display ( 16 ). Play that string again, give its tuning key a spin, and the six LEDs above the bottom row of Floor Board switches give you a light show. The idea is that the LEDs to the left light if you�re �at. The LEDs to the right light if you�re sharp. And the two LEDs in the center will light at the same time when you�ve got it just right. Give any one of the Floor Board�s switches a stomp and the tuner disappears just as swiftly as it came and you�re right back to Channel Select Mode. What if you want to tune to a different reference than A=440Hz? When you�re in the tuner mode, turn the Mid knob on the Flextone while watching the display on the Floor Board. Hey, it changes! You can set the reference frequency anywhere from 435-445Hz. This setting is stored so you don�t have to reset it every time you turn on the amp if you decide you want to be different (or if that piano in your rehearsal room has decided to be different).

Wah Pedal
So how about that Wah pedal? It�s the one on the left ( 19 ). Get yourself planted with your foot on there nice and comfortable. Now, press down with your toes, let go, and do it again. You should see a little light turning on and off to the left of the Wah pedal. When the light�s on, the wah�s on. When the light�s off, the wah�s off. Neat. Incidentally, the Flextone Wah is modeled after a late 60�s Vox wah, with plenty of �growl� in the heel back position. Now then, turn the wah light on, switch to the Black Panel Amp Model, set your Drive to about 5, and do a little fast rhythm playing while you rock back and forth to the beat on that wah pedal. Hang a disco ball, unbutton your shirt to your navel (assuming you don�t have it that way all the time), hang some gold chains around your neck, and get ready to party! You can do subtle things with the wah pedal too, like turning it on just a tiny bit and leaving it there, just barely caressing your sound. But then, that�s not as much fun as playing the theme to �Shaft,� is it?
