Well I suppose it's really late to be doing this but I figure... what the hell! Back in '72 I purchased a Kustom Kasino Bass amp head/speaker(2)cabinet combo... but I almost immediately misplaced any literature... including the ops manual on the selectone switches.... this amp head and the two speaker cabinets have serviced me well ever since. But I have always wondered what the selectone switches really did... I know the different sounds I get... by heart! But I an anal kinda guy now and I'd really like to read somewhere what the switches are supposed to do. ANYONE have any venues for obtaining an owners manual on the head?? I'd really appreciate any answer... Thanks!

JCM (James Marshall...! I knew sooner or later the MArshall amp guy would come around to the kustom side...too bad for all those tube rockers from the 80s....!)..ok...so I'm stupid...anyhow.. I have nothing of value to contribute and I'm sorry for that...I figured by now someone would step in with help at least from the kustom lit side of things...but I didn't want you to feel ignored either so I'll at least say high and tell you that I admire your loyalty, years of committment to one amp..and proud to hear that it has been there for you as well... Play Loud...ET

Hi.I use to have a kasino 8 channel PA back in the days, but mabe I can help with my eletronics back ground. And also my K250 has one 4 position selectone swt.Don,t worrie their is no wrong way to misuse these switches, whatever gives you the tone you like is fine.Youv`e been using the amp like me for so long you must be getting the tone you want.all the swt,s do is cut or boost certain frequence ranges, be they low middle or high.If the amp is 2 channel you will find that jumping the two channels together will provide even more of a fat sound and greater tone ranges.
