the guitar input is unbalanced?
Yeah, a guitar output is a mono unbalanced two wire 1/4" TS jack.
Of course there are people who make guitars with custom wiring, but the standard is TS. 2 wires: tip and sleeve.
You can use a stereo/balanced TRS jack with 3 wires,? (Tip, Ring Sleeve) but only because those are sort of compatible with TS. It won't actually be balanced.
so whyd you start off with saying it's balanced if it's unvalanced andbwhy dont guitars come balacned
I said it would be better for guitars to use XLR, because XLR are balanced.
ahhh, but quarter inchs jacks can be balanced too? also why dont they use xlr then
