Is it just the jack that you can input your fx pedals? the word loop throws me off.

Thanks Dudes!

It allows you to put effects between the pre-amp and power amp stages. It leaves the amp, connects to the effects and loops back into the amp.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

Then substitue the word LOOP with a Chain... most talk is about the placement with in the Chain... example:

EQ before Distortion or after Distortion in the chain or both?

Here's a good Article if your curious....
