Greetings to all! First post here.
I purchased this new Vypyr 15 amp today. I suspect the problem I am having is due to my unfamiliarity with the box. But can't be certain. I don't want to take it back (yet).
Plugged amp in, and as expected the leds go crazy back and forth, side to side. Manual does have a sequence one can use to turn them off - for good, if they get too annoying. The other way to shut them off is to plug-in guitar. Well, I have a 6-string guitar on order, but don't have one here at home. I do, however, have a bass guitar. I realize you don't play a bass through a 'regular' amp. But for continuity sake, I plugged it in, and it did shut off the panning leds, locking them onto whatever corresponding number the particular knob is set to. The problem is - I get no sound. The bass vol is turned up, as is the amp's. But nothing! I have not yet heard a note from it. I select various presets on the amp, turn some dials, and still, plucking a bass string does nothing!
Will a bass guitar not play even a note through a regular amp? I do have a 15w Peavey bass amp, and it plays fine there. So, hope just plugging the bass into the Vypyr didn't blow anything. Thoughts?
