  • It does work but it destroys the speakers. Speakers and guitar amps are not the same animals. Just saying for anyone reading this and about to damage expensive speakers.

  • How did you connect aux cable to the guitar? You said quarter inch adapter, but didn't show it fully.

  • I wish you'd make a video on that SG, which seems to be somewhat of a rarity considering most SG have a bound neck with block inlays. Very cool guitar you got there.

  • Yeah I have a 35 watt bluetooth portable speaker. Like a jbl charge 4 and plugged into the input jack and works great. Was going to buy a little portable amp not now. No effects added but great sound. with my 3 position pickup guitar.

  • I run my old Line 6 Pod XT through a Bose Soundlink III. It works alright. It doesn't handle too much reverb, chorus or delay very good though. But other than that, it sounds ok.

  • Looks cool !!! I run mine thru a full pedalboard that includes a Amplifier Head Simulator which is a Joyo AC Tone that simulates the sound of a Vox AC-30 and a Xvive mini DI / Amplifier Cab simulator (both sims can be turned on or off as needed). It runs right into my bluetooth rechargeable speakers or mixer then into the speakers as needed as I play both electric and acoustic-electric. On the DI there is a line out to a guitar amplifier if I want to plug into my Orange 3 watt battery amp that is also pluged into my Orange 20 watt cabinet. I get dirt from the Orange amplifier, my Amp Sim and my compression/sustain pedal. Other pedals on the board is a boss PS5 pitch shifter, Joyo Analog Delay, and a Joyo Atmospheres Reverb. I use Pyle, W-King and Samson Expedition Escape Plus bluetooth speakers depending upon my needs and as backups for each other. Almost everything fits into my backpack including my music stand and accesories.

  • Wait what? I thought you had to use a headphone amp before you plug it into a speaker so that the guitar actually gets power.
