radio amp

Unread post by guitardmb » Mon Apr 25, 2005 8:27 pm

I just recently got a Taylor 110-E.When I got home I plugged it into my amp to test out the acoustic exciter I got with it. But the guitar wasnt going through. The only thing that came out of the amp was a classic rock radio station...."sing us a song you're the piano man....". Anyway I plugged it into my computer and it worked fine.

I was using an electric amp, would this be the problem. I use to plug my old acoustic into it all the time and it wouldnt do it. How do I fix it? Is this normal?

Yes, when your amp picks up radio, time to upgrade.
