Hi , am I in the right place for help with my evh 5150 iii 100w head?
Two questions.
Can I use a boss gt100 in 4 cable method in effects loop? I set up the gt100 in this way, but blew the amp! First time my amp tech fixed a capacitor. This time he fears I blew the mains transformer. If I have, can this part be supplied by fender? It seems like the gt100 is putting out a high signal that is too hot for the send and return on the head?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers folks

Does the GT100 have an output level control?

If so, roll it down. Most guitar amps are happiest with an input signal that does not exceed 500 mV RMS.
