Re: [Conklin Instrument Owners] Conklin BDGT-7 is on the way!!

I have one of these beauties, also w/o manual. I found a manual on the
web - on the Conklin site, I think. I don't seem to have saved it
(didn't find it), but hopefully it's still out there. Honestly I've
found the very best sound is Instrument EQ: Flat. Amp EQ: Flat :-)

Cheers and have fun,
Matt
