∙ 14y agoFirst, check the obvious things...is there a battery in the pedal? is the adaptor you're using working? is you guitar lead plugged in properly? are all the leads plugged in properly? volume up? leads working properly? if all this stuff checks out then there may be something wrong with the components inside the pedal, in which case take it to a guitar technician to be fixed. it may be something simple and relatively cheap to fix.

∙ 15y agoIt is possible that you have a bad cable going from the guitar to amp. Swap in a known working cable to check this. If the problem persists, you may have a bad connection to the output jack in the guitar, or the input jack on the amp. Also, the most obvious thing to check is that all your volume knobs are turned up. Beyond that, take it to an amp tech.

How do you make a bass amp sound like an electric guitar amp?
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. If you are trying to get guitar sounds out of a bass amp, in my opinion, it's next to impossible. 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.
How would you spell a guitar feedback sound?
Basically you play a note or chord (chord works best) and hold it, let it ring, then you go right up to your guitar amp and hold the guitar right up to the speaker then you slowly turn the volume on the amp up until you hear feedback. And, while the guitar is feeding back, you can shake the guitar, or wiggle the volume knob a little to get a tremolo effect. Just mess around and experament.

Is there a way to make a guitar amp sound like a bass amp?
If this means you are using a guitar amplifier to power an electric bass, stop this immediately. Guitar amps are not designed to handle the low register of a bass, and you can blow out your speakers. If this means you are using a guitar amplifier to power a guitar, but want a more bass-like tone, turn down the mids and highs and turn up the lows on your EQ. That should do the trick.
What should you do so that sound will come out of the amp and what should the volume be on the amp and guitar?
You need to plug the Amps power cord into the wall (or multi-box) and you will need to flick the power switch. The guitar lead will need to be plugged into the input (little round hole in front of guitar amp), and into the guitar. As to the volume, it is up to personal preference. If you want it loud, turn it up loud. I like to set my guitar volume to 8 or 9. and then change the amp volume until it is the right volume.

If you're amp and guitar are on the light is shining on your amp and your guitar is ready to play and nothing happens which one is broken?
plug your amp jack into the amp and set it how you would normally set it for practice or what ever kind of playing youre doing. turn the master volume to max and touch the tip of the amp jack with out touching any metal with the other hand. if you get the buzzy sound your amps probably fine. if you don't get the buzzy sound ands your amp is on max volume then you have a problem with your amp. hope this helps - Kyse.
