Amp Newbie

Eric Hutchinson (ehutch247) - 02 Feb 2005 19:13:00

So as of yesterday i'm the proud owner of a '65 re-issue twin. A
mild upgrade from my Peavey Basic 60 Bass amp i've been using. At
times I pay attention the the amp discussion but so far they haven't
really applied to me so my ignorance will be revealed with this
question, so here goes...
I didn't receive the original footswitch with it, but I did get one
(a Crate 3-button switch with two inputs itself). The cord used to
connect it has two ends yet I only have one input in the back of the
amp. Checking online for the pedal that it should come with, i see
it has two ends as well. So if one end goes to the footswitch input
where does the other go to?
I understand I can't use a regular guitar cord either (need RCA),
because when it's plugged into the footswitch jack i can switch on
and off vibrato but I don't get any reverb (why would i ever want
that!) and if i don't plug it in i get reverb but no vibrato.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks,
Eric
P.S. i also heard something about using a patch to play both channels
at once, I'm not exactly sure how to do this or what it will do.

See this post in context.
