I just acquired a 2nd black Kustom K100C-8
amp. Can anyone tell me the year of manufacture?
Serial # 46005

Also what device should I use to run my guitar into both amps? Some sort of Y cord ? And where would I find the device needed?

thanks,
Steve

The best way to go would be to use A/B box, ART makes a good one for the price.
The best A/B boxes are also buffered, but they hit the wallet harder!
Next up would be to go to the Shack and get a Y adapter and and run two cales off of the axe, or make a low Z ic cable(3 conductor) to fan out to two cords at each end.

Next up and the easyest is to just plug another cable into the other unused jack in the channel you are playing thru and feed that into the second amp.

You will be then pulling signal thru the tone cap that makes for the low and high tone change in each channel, so you may not be able to recover the briteness by means of the tone controls in the secomd amp.
If this is a issue you can simply go into the amp and solder a jumper across that tone cap that spans the two input jacks, the only issue with jumping that cap is you no longer have that cap to mellow the tone if that matters.
The other issue may be getting rid of the line ground buzz if one amp has a stocker 2 prong AC cord and the other does not.
