G25 & G50 OWNERS MANUAL HEARING DAMAGE AND PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE SPLs GAMMA series electric guitar amplifiers are capable of producing extremely loud volume levels that can cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crews or the audience. Hearing protection is recommended during long-term exposure to high SPLs
(sound pressure levels). Remember, if it hurts, it is definitely too loud! Long term exposure to high SPLs first causes temporary threshold shifts; limiting your ability to hear the actual loudness and exercise good judgment. Repeated long term exposure to high SPLs will cause permanent hearing loss. Please note the recommended exposure limits in the accompanying table. More information about these limits is available on the US government Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) website at: www.osha.gov.
