KG100HFX Control Panel 13 14 1. Input 1: ¼-inch input jack that is intended for electric guitars but will accept other instruments as well. This input provides the highest gain. It is considered to be the “normal” input. 2. Input 2: This ¼-inch input jack provides 6 dB lower gain so it will allow for a cleaner sound. It can also be useful when using pedals in front of the amp since it provides more headroom.
