How do you attach a microphone to an amplifier? Go with your microphone output to the input of the pre-amplifier. Look for the correct connections and care for the right voltage. Often you need e.g. symmetric 48 volts phantom powering or 5 volts or so for the electret microphone amplifier.

If your amp is not equipped with a microphone style input jack, you get an adapter from a music store that will change the mic jack from a 3-prong jack to a 1/4" jack, so you can plug this into your amp.

You can use the carry strap to hang a mike by its' cable in the way of the edge of the speaker. About 1/3rd of the way to its center. A desk mike holder pointing the mike at the speakers edge works also. Depends on the type of mike also. You have to hear it to see if it's right. Talk to a working soundman. Frank Zappa definitely has an opinion on the subject.

You didn't plug the cord in all the way. It may not be the actual microphone. On occasions the socket of the amplifier can short out (connection break). It would be wise to test your mics on another persons amp to see it they work there - this will give you a guide back to a faulty amp.


Do you need any kind of special Microphone to plug it into a guitar amp?

No, you just need the right end on your mic cord. You can either purchase one with a 1/4 plug on one end of the chord or get an adapter for your mic chord that changes the 3 pin plug to a 1/4" plug. Remember not to aim the microphone at the speaker as this will create feedback, other than that, have fun!

yes you can but you have to have some sort of pick up so the sound will travel from the strings to the speaker but i wouldn't advise this because it will not be very loud you will have to have something to ampify the sound so just brake down and buy a good used or even better brand new Line 6 Spider Series.
