you know, they say there are no stupid questions, only stupid people who ASK questions....or at least Chris Berman says that....in that spirit i'd like to ask one.... :mrgreen:

you've already straightened me out on using KT 120's in my Fender Super Bassman, ie, it's a bad idea

now for today's question....when i have the speaker output switch set to "mute", is it ok to have the amp on and not have any speakers connected to the amp.

the Super Bassman manual seems to say that is ok, but i just want to be sure.

thanks,

/s/ Dave

In THEORY and on paper YES it is "safe." HOWEVER what happens if you accidentally BUMP the mute off with no speaker connected? What if someone else comes along and decides to play it and suddenly says, "Oh there's the problem, some nut activated the mute switch!" Best to leave it connected as a safety net.
