The easiest way would be to add another potentiometer (of the same rating) in series with the master volume control.

On a Bass Amp what do the controls do?
Usually they control the tone and the volume. More advanced amps often add compression, reverb, or other effects.
What do the knobs on the guitar amp mean and do?
While different guitar amps can have different knobs on them, there are some that are almost always apparent. Gain - the gain knob is usually used to dial in distortion on the amplifier. It's - most of the time - not a volume control. Turning it up will cause the preamp to distort, making it sound crunchier. Treble - the treble knob controls the high frequencies of the amplifier. Turning it up will result in a brighter sound, however, turning it up too much might result in a harsh tone. Vice versa, turning it down too much might make the tone muddy. Middle - the mid knob controls the middle frequencies of the amplifier. Turning it up will make your guitar cut through the music better and will warm up your tone, but turning it up too much might result in an overly honky tone. Vice versa, turning it down too much might make the amplifier sound too cold. Metal guitarists sometimes turn the mid knob down for a heavier tone. This is called scooping. Bass - the bass knob controls - as you might have guessed - the low frequencies of the amplifier. Turning it up will result in the increase of the tone's low end, but turning it up too much might make your tone sound muddy and too bassy. Vice versa, turning it down too much might make the amplifier sound too thin. Channel Volume - the channel volume knob is usually present in multiple channel guitar amplifiers. It is used to equalize the volume differences between differently voiced channels. The channel volume might add some distortion when it's turned up since it affects the preamp stage. Master Volume or Volume - the volume knob is used to make the amplifier go louder. Also, in tube amplifiers it might add some poweramp distortion when you turn it up. This knob should always be set to the highest level possible for making your amplifier sound the best.
How do you add a second volume knob to a fender jaguar?
A Fender Jag already has two volume controls. So this question is sort of unclear. A blanket answer is "the easiest way to a master volume control for an electric guitar is a volume pedal". It requires no mods to the original wiring, as it plugs inline to the output cord.
Which is better an amp with effects or effect pedals?
Built-in effects on an amplifier are usually inferior. Such an amplifier is usually digital. You don't have as much control over the parameters of each effect. You can't mix-and-match (for example, use an Ibanez Tube Screamer for overdrive and an MXR Phase 90). Also, the basic tone of a digital amplifier tends to be inferior, less "punchy" and "organic", and especially problematic in a live setting. Most professional guitarists would use a very good basic amp (usually a tube amp) and then add an effects unit or a pedal board.
How do you tune a car amp?
You can either wire it the way it should be and see if the power light turns on or if it has a stand by light. If stand by light turns on then something may be wrong. If you do not know how to wire the amplifier you can look inside it and see if the inside looks black as if it had been burned.
What can you do if the sound is low from the CD?
If you've turned the volume up all the way already and it's still too low, you'll need to add an amplifier, or a larger amplifier, to make the sound louder. Don't laugh about the volume control suggestion...we had a guy who called in a work order on a piece of military audio equipment because "audio output level too low." The mechanic went to the device and found the volume knob was on two. He put it up to seven and left.
When should you use a amp in your truck?
An amplifier (amp) is used to generate a higher sound volume. Most production sound systems for vehicles have adequate capacity to produce relatively loud music, however... if you absolutely, positively want to destroy your hearing; by all means, add an amplifier to your vehicle sound system.

Do dc motors and generators has slip ring if so for what?
Yes a slip ring motor is there. There is a slip ring and a brush in the motor to add external resistance to the motor inorder to be able to control its speed.
