WWSD? What would stevie do?
2 guitars in to 1 amp
i have a amp that has 1 input, but it also has a send /return loop. Is there any way i can get 2 different guitars to play thought the amp with out destroying it? Is it possible just to hook a guitar to the return loop in the back and adjust the levels?

If you plug a guitar into the return of the effects loop, the pre-amp is bypassed (at least on my Marshall's it works that way) so you'd need a DI box or a seperate pre-amp to boost the signal. I run my PodPro into the return of my JCM 900, it bypasses the amps pre-amp so the PodPro acts as the pre-amp.

Yeah, but you'll need a A/B/Y switcher pedal. It's basically a pedal with one input for the guitar, then 2 outputs to go to 2 amps. An A/B pedal will only switch back and forth between the amps, while an A/B/Y pedal allows you to switch between both or run them at the same time..Also, any kind of stereo pedel (delay, reverb, etc...) has 2 outputs, so they allow the connection of one guitar into 2 amps.

Is there any "easier" way to plug 2 guitars into one amp?

yeah, what he said... as long as you've got some kind of multieffects, or really anything with an amp modeler, then you can plug into the effects return.
I personnally don't like the sound of two guitars into one amp, but that may have been due to the fact that I was playing an electric through an acoustic amp with this other guy who was also playing electric... sounds much better with 2 amps, but you do what you gotta do to get the job done.
