      OK, I have a Fender 66 Twin Reverb reissue which i bought about 6 months ago and as some of you may know it has 2 seperate channels, one normal, one for reverb/tremelo. Each channel has two inputs and i was wondering if there was any reason why i shouldn’t plug something into each channel (ie: a guitar in one and a mic in the other or two guitars). It doesn’t say anything about it in the manual but i don’t want it to explode or something.

        Well, I don’t know the particulars of your amp model. But, I have done what you are considering a number of times with different amps, usually because someone doesn’t have an amp. It works but it sounds like crap. One guitar will probably be cutting out the other. Singing through a guitar amp always provides a real grungy, low-fi kind of vocal quality. Like I said, it won’t hurt your amp, but you probably wouldn’t want to use that set-up for anything other than practice.

            Okay, I’m no amp genius, but to my knowlege it won’t hurt anything. My dad always says he used to use multi channel amps to jam with his friends (since he was amp-less for years). I probably wouldn’t use a mic though, it just seems kinda funny
