FX LOOP INSTALLATION Installing this module will require you to work with high voltage. Previous experience with tubes and/or tube amplifiers is mandatory. It’s recommended to have the module installed by an amp technician. COMPLETE THE Fx BOARD The Fx board has an option to determine the spacing of the SEND and RETURN jacks. They can be spaced 1 inch or 1-1/2 inch apart. -
