Step 5 – Completed Project
Before you use, there are a few notes about the use of the milli-AMP:
Do not turn the amp on without a guitar already plugged in. (A painful screech will occur hurting your ears)
Do not play the amp while charging. Charge only with the amp switched off.
To fully charge from a dead battery will take 12 hours. Do not overcharge the amp.
The volume is controlled by the volume pot on the guitar. Because the amp starts clipping above about half volume (entirely dependant
on your guitar) the volume also controls the distortion produced by the amp. With the volume turned down enough for the sound to be
clean, the "loudness" of the amp is not significantly lower. This depends on the guitar.
