Silvertone guitar with amp in guitar

Post by pops »

This might be a long shot, but i have a Silvertone guitar in the shop with an amp and speaker in the guitar and someone has removed the wire for the 9volt battery to make the amp work. Does anyone by chance know where this connects. Thanks

The battery has two wires, and red and a black, which one are you asking about?
If it's the black one the that can be connected to anywhere on the chassis, my guess on the red one would be to the on/ off switch.
If you do a search you should be able to turn up a schematic for that latter model amp in case set up.

Not amp-in-case, amp-in-guitar. The schematic is at this site: http://www.silvertoneworld.net/electric/1487/1487.html

Someone took the battery wires out so i wasn't sure where they would go, or if they were in series or parallel. Thanks guys i love the knowledge here.
