Some amps such as the Fender G-Dec have a CD input on them that allows you to play your CD player through the amp.
On other amps, you need an adapter to go from the CD player output to the amp's input. It will work.

If you are using a guitar amp as a pre-amp to a bass amp (plugging your guitar into a guitar amp, and then patching the guitar amp to the bass amp), do not do this. Bass, acoustic guitar, and vocals (mics) are low impedence, where guitars are high impedence. You can very easily damage your equipment doing this sort of thing.

There is only one type of bass amp that I know of that you can accomplish this with...Ampeg has a series of bass amps with "switchable tweeters", meaning that they come equipped with tweeters, but you can turn them in order to use rig as a bass amp, and turn them on in order to play an acoustic guitar thru the bass amp. Since an acoustic guitar is low impedence, this works fairly well. You can also plug in an electric to this setup, even tho an electric guitar is high impedence...It's possible to plug in a high impedence instrument into a low impedence amp, but it's not advisable to plug in a low impedence instrument into a high impedence amp.

Can an electric guitar be played on a bass guitar amp?
I can't think of any issues other than the regular guitar amp may not have the size of speakers to give the best bass sound. ------ Guitar amps are made to output guitar frequencies. Bass amps are made to output bass frequencies. If you interchange the two, you will not do damage but at some point the amp will cut out. I believe it was Tony Iommi who used to play guitar through a bass amp to get some really nice bass distortion on his guitar. ------ I believe that after too much use, the low frequencies of a bass may damage the guitar amp. I'd say it's alright to use it with a guitar amp, but try to keep it in moderation.
