ABOUT
THE
INSERT
JACK:
The Insert jack (#13) lets you patch external effects into the amplifier just prior to its power amp
stage, as shown below. Set the mix controls on the external effects units to full effect (100% wet).
The Insert jack is a parallel circuit, allowing the connection of another input to the amplifier with-
out interupting the signal from the Input jack. An attenuator or external level control may be need-
ed whenever a line level signal is connected to the Insert jack.

additional information.
18. DC CIGARETTE LIGHTER ADAPTER, 12
VDC: Plug the small round connector of the
optional 12-volt car adapter into this jack to
