Most A-series amps have a 4 pin male jack. What does your amp have? You will need to connect two of the pins in the jack to the metal shell. If you have them, short wires with small alligator clips can be used to connect the pins to the metal mounting screws. Just to test things, you can use a small screwdriver or even a paper clip to short the pins to the outer jack ahell. If you describe the jack that your amp has, we can help you figure out what you need to do. Report message to a moderator
