iff my teacher see that i wired the black to red one he would cut my hands off.

@rafael44p the colors are just representations of what current or signal is being passed through the wire. In this case I am using a red alagator clip to go to the talk box, which is non-polarized, so it does not matter.

yooo really good tutorial i had a doubt u are using some glue to the first pvc tube on the horn driver? i didnt catch that point jeje

[igotacupprod]

@Funkloops nope no glue used at all

how to you hook this into a dean markley pickup

[igotacupprod]

@beatles326 You cant hook it up to the pickup itself, you have to plug the pickup into the input on the amp and attach the horn driver to the amp like in the video.

@igotacupprod great tutorial, man! I've been miserable ever since my Rocktron Banshee talkbox broke down a few years ago, but now I'm excited that I can get back in the game, especially after seeing how simple this is. One quick question, do you simply rest the talkbox inside the back of the amp? How do you keep it from it wiggling around or jiggling itself loose during play? If that makes any sense. Does it not need any sort of housing or casing to keep it safe?

[JavonteTreble]

@BIGMACE424 I imagine it would be as simple as just hooking the keyboard up to the amp that the talkbox is connected to.

Can you make this work with a keyboard?

Hello, I have a question. Where did you put the black aligator inside your amp? Or, Does it matter if you put both aligators in the same part of the amp driver?. Than you! Nice video. Than you for posting
