What powers the pickups? The amp you attach the guitar too?

You do! When you pluck the metal guitar strings, they vibrate through the magnetic field created by magnets in the pickups, which generates an alternating current in the coil of wire wrapped around the magnet in the pickups. That current is very weak, though, so you need an amplifier to amplify the signal for output to a speaker.

Take a look at this link; en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickup_(music_technology)#/searchHopefully it answers your question.

I think you are assuming they are active pickups from the solid black covers, but I believe they are passive pickups with black covers... not EMG style active pups which require a 9 volt power source...

The 44 Magnum should be plugged into a non-powered speaker cabinet. You can plug your guitar directly into the input of the pedal, but the output is upwards of 44 watts and could damage a standard amplifier. The pedal is made to replace the need for a powered amplifier head or combo amp.

My amp is currently hooked up to a Pioneer 3500 watt sub and a stock deck. It beatssss

I have purchased both the single coil and humbucker versions. Both have 8-10 foot cords captive at the pickup and terminated in 1/4" phone plugs [regular guitar plugs]. BTW, the single coil sounds brighter, but will pick up noise from dimmers, other amps [!] and even the microwave in another room, but on the same circuit. The humbucker is VERY quiet.

I plug into a 150 W monitor. Not a problem one. have never tried the Guitar amp.I will try an Ampeg Bass amp when I get back home. I can let you know later. I will say I love what the unit can do.

Your going to need a amp, power station, and many other cords. I went to guitar center and they said it'd be cheaper to buy a new one than get that one working

Plug into amp, plug into guitar. It's super simple. You don't need to channels just two cables

There's a battery bag that is fastened inside the body of the acoustic via very strong and secure Velcro at installation. You loosen the strings, reach your hand in and pull the bag out. Put a 9V in the bag and re fasten the Velcro. Then you restring and you're good to go! Piece of cake. This has to be one of the best acoustic pickups out there right now. Dig it. Hope this helps!

Yes you need the guitar cord plugged in. Take it out when done to conserve the battery. Great little amp. Enjoy.

If you already have an amp, you'll need a 9V battery and possibly another guitar cable. Hope this helps-not a bad distortion pedal for the money.

I've never used the feature but it looks like a standard 1/4 jack, so I'd guess probably a regular guitar amp connection.

it has its own power. thats a great little amp for home use. we use it for a lap steel guitar

They can be connected directly to your amp. But you will definitely need an amp they need some real power.

It is acoustic/electric with a uk-2000 pickup built into the side. You do not actually need the battery to run the pickups unless you decide to use them.

Output is 50 watts, would you try to input 50 watts INTO your receiver ??? I wouldn't !!! Perhaps if you just had a pair of speakers to hook up to it. But the guitar is mono and you'd be trying to hook up into a stereo input shorting the two together, etc...I still wouldn't. Use your money for a guitar amp instead and do it the right way.

The pedal and the cable is all you need, the Spider is the power supply, this is a must for any guitar playerthe box it came in had the operations on it in diagrams, but very simple, play with it and you will have it easy

What are the guitar amplifier requirements? DC or AC, voltage, and amperage (current)??
