With a good buzz last night I emailed Nik and asked him about it. He said, "why would you want to limit yourself like that?". I have to agree, I don't think that's something I want.

Don’t know what he means by “limit”, I have seen them on other 4 holer’s. They just put in another input that IS already jumper’d, a 5th hole. I think you can also still use those mini cords to jump as well. Should be just a cleaner way of doing it.

Input resistance, the grid leaks parallel, likely guess. Because you can jumper Bright to Normal the actual guitar input you use will make a difference.

Jumpered: Then the guitar sees half the impedance and the channel it is plugged into (Bright v Normal) varies its output to the corresponding Volume thus I would think one channel becomes more dominant and the volumes vary the tone in a different way than the other config.

In other words you have four possibilities: Jumpered Bright, Jumpered Normal, Not-Jumpered Bright and Not-Jumpered Normal
Five: You can also have another person plug into the amp or add a looping song you want to practice with on one input while you use the other
Six: With another person playing in the other channel you can still add a looper.
Seven: two other mates playing with you and a looper using all four input jacks.

The pwner rules!!! lol
I actually did the classic fat finger! OMG

Perhaps Nik was thinking similarly. Doing an internal jumper only saves a patch cable, and if switched ON (assuming after the grid leaks) you parallel all inputs so it limits to all input parallel impedance. There may be other internal switch configs too but it still boils down to limiting the designed inputs from what they are to something less.

OK, so yeah.... I can see.... aaaa ......if you ...., huh?

That's a good idea. I've never really used an effects loop partly because of all the extra cables. I almost told him to leave it off, but I didn't because I might use it someday. I figured it would be better to have it and not need it, than to someday need it and not have it.

This is what I was talking about for the loop. Simple and works great.
