Do I need to put a battery in the guitar to make it play through the amp? I get no sound out of the amp. And how do you open the battery case?

When it's plugged, you can make it an amplified acoustic sound or the electric sound. Not plugged, it sounds like a beginner guitar, which is fine!

Nah man. I looked something up like that before. Its either your wiring in your house or you need to get your amp checked. Mine kinda makes a sound like that on OD2 on almost full gain and volume when my guitar is plugged in though. So check the wiring or you amp if nothing is plugged in and making that noise. Hope this helps.

1. Don't use it like a pedal in front of an amp, it's meant to be used as a DI box into a soundboard. 2. Make sure your on board eq controls on your guitar aren't turned up the whole way, if the volume on your guitars eq is blasted it will distort the effect. 3. If you are using other effects, make sure they aren't overdriving the ADI21. If everything is correct and its still distorting than it may be the effect. I've never had any problems with it distorting at all, it should be a pretty transparent effect just adding some eq to your signal and acting as a DI.

No, you charge it, install it between the battery and your amp. It's always on or it would discharge and pop your amp fuse when it turned on.

I have no idea. I play it right out of the box. No mods at all and I have had nothing but positive feedback from folks I have gigged with. I did put an Ibanez delay pedal on the input and a speaker motor on the output because I crank the volume to full, set the tone to one quarter, and use the speaker motor to attenuate the output to the speaker. It's a great little amp, lots of tone, lots of Chicago crunch. Enjoy!

There's also a switch on the guitar input jack. So if you haven't got a guitar lead plugged in it won't power on. Also remember to pull the guitar lead out when you're not using it or it won't be really swithed off (even though the LED is off) and your batter will go flat

Let me admit first, that without visual assessment but with my own practice. I just lay one pack in my case under the neck of the guitar. Or if you are not going to move the guitar, just lay the pack, inside its case (provided) on top of the strings. It has to be inside a closed case. I wish you success.

Your amp needs to be phantom power operable. Most P.A. Systems will have a phantom power switch to power the preamp. It's not so bad putting the 9v, you just have to unscrew the backplate and hook a battery in.

Hi Anne, You do need a amp., I use a little Peavey Solo and it works just fine. Hope this helps, Mike

Loosen the strings enough to get my hand in far enough to reach the battery pouch. Kind of a pain, but worth the bother. It is a really nice pickup. Hope this helps.

The amp has only one standard input. The only way I can think of is to hook up the rhythm machine to the amp in its standard input and than the rhythm machine may have an input and you can plug in your guitar into it. That the only way I can see it working.

You can go straight to a guitar amp or mixing board. Sounds great but probably won't work for very long.Mine died after 3 or four months.

Hi Pierre! To try and answer your questions, yes, you can use a bigger external amplifier with it. It can be played like a regular acoustic guitar without the batteries, but you lose the tuner function and the equalizer will not work. It's a great guitar for the money. My son loves his! Hope this helps.

There is a battery pack that is inside the body of the guitar that contains a simple 9v battery just slide it out and change it

When you plug it into the wall, if it is fully charged then the light on the power plug is green. I believe that as the battery gets low as you are playing it, then the power light on the front of the amp changes color, not totally sure of that. The solution is to just keep it charged at all times, so you know you always have a full battery.
