It has an LR-F Lipstick/Acoustic hybrid preamp, which is very easy to control, on it you have a volume knob (which I might add is not accessable while playing, but still good anyway), high, mid and low equalisers, a mute and phase button (both very handy) and a slide to blend between pickups.

I've even experimented with burning CDs off my vinyl, using turntables I have, through a number of garage sale specials such as a radio shack turntable preamp (boosts output to normal line levels), an old DJ mixer, and an old stereo with turntable inputs and line outputs.
