Title: Output jack on MK II amp
Post by: jazzyfingers04 on May 02, 2004, 08:44:40 PM
Hey, I was wondering about putting a line out to use the amp as a head (of sorts). So the question I have is, how would I wire up the final two wires (past the resistor and capacitor) to make the jack work?

If you're referring to the Little Gem Mk II amp, then you'd use a mono 1/4" jack.  The jack replaces the speaker as shown in the schematic, with one wire  connected to the tip lug and the other to the sleeve lug.

If you're putting the circuit in a metal enclosure, remember to use non-conductive washers to isolate the output jack.
