For the use you're putting 'em to, it'll work just fine. They mention 'V'-guitars; they could just as easily have listed most guitars, amps and speakers. They work less well on some guitars with recessed jack sockets, such as Strats and the like (or speaker cabs with recessed plates...). They are not suitable for high-power speaker loads (no jacks are...); Speakon connectors are preferable for connections over 200w or so (although some older amps and cabs had jack connectors...).
Are you talking about one of these?

The description says for flying v guitar. Does that work on speaker cable and instrument cable?

Is there an adapter one could get, where you just plug your jack into it and get the bend?

Yes
Learn also that 'wire' has only one conductor, 'cables' have more. You have red and black speaker 'wires' (only one conducting core...), the blue 'cable' has at least two. You can help yourself by using the correct terminology; it'll make communication much easier, and maybe even safer, for yourself and others. Just sayin'.
I have a proper speaker cable now.
I need a bend for it. I want one that is just plug and play. This one says you have to solder. Links, product names or part numbers will be greatly appreciated from anyone.

So would you all think these have green abalone or black abalone? Mine looks to be mixed with both but I can't say for sure.
-
What is the material the inlays are made from?
Just out of curiosity I want to know what I got.

While I'm here I'll give an rp1 update. This things is so old the off/on button apparently had not been invented yet, got to unplug it to turn it off. Don't have a built in tuner either.

It's fine. Your present one is fine, too. Is that a guitar jack cable you're using for the speaker..? It'll work at low volume, but should really be a speaker cable. See about changing that while you're at it.
Are you talking about the blue wire?
-
Oh crap!
So I'm on ebay shopping for a box to put my speaker in and revisited where I got the wire.
Is this safe? It says 16 or 8 ohm. I have a 4 ohm speaker. I thought wire was wire, do I need to get something else or is this safe? Is there a correct wire that will improve sound or anything? My girlfriend has been saying, you are going to get electrocuted or burn the place down playing like that, oh please tell me she's wrong. I hate having to tell her she was right.
-
Okay, I'll get a box.
Rp1 works, I figured out how to restore factory settings. Will download and read manual for it this weekend. It's ancient technology but still does more than I'll ever need. Makes some really crazy sounds.

The 'standard' way of using it would be to plug the Output Left/Mono into the input of the amp. Fx Send and Return are for adding further Fx. Leave that for now, and just use the Mono Output.
Awesome, Thanks!!
-
Okay now don't let me blow nothing up, guitar goes in (input) of digitech, then I'm going to guess a guitar cord goes from (FX Send) of digitech, to the input of the amp head right?
-
Okay digitech rp1 is home. This things old. Got a 94 sticker under it. Cleaned with alcohol and a rag. One end popped off while cleaning so I blasted inside with air.

I have an empty 2x12 cab if it's any use...
I do thank you kindly my friend but I have a 10 inch speaker.
A thin box designed to fit behind a truck seat is probably what I'll end up with. Less space, easy to move around.
-
I need a box to put the speaker in, I don't know if we can link products here or not but I've found a few car speaker boxes around 25 free shipping. I'm in no hurry on the box, sounds fine and is easy to move around like it is.

Price of a pack of fags! Or a six pack in the USA! Sometimes.....bite the bullet, it's what it's worth to you ...not the resell price. Set a budget and try to stick to it. We don't buy the cheapes food, shoes, whatever. Get going on bass.....you will soon forget the price! GAS will soon set in!! Good luck! Could always get a headphone amp???
I'm using this for an amp, mini head and speaker.

Okay, just made a call, told the rp1 guy "hey, I'm sorry but there is a bp50 on reverb for 35 that I'm probably going to go with (this is true) unless you can come down, I mean that thing is around 30 years old. Would you take 20?
He said yes.
So now I got a few hours to decide if I'm going to get it on my way home from work or get the bp50. There both so cheap I might just get them both.

Big Digitech fan here, I have the BP355.
The RP1 is for guitarists, but spend some time with it and you be able to find some useable sounds. A quick Google suggests the analogue effects were rated at the time.
I'm guessing you mean, 'the analog effects were (related)' ?
-
I'm thinking about getting a Rp1 digitech, one here local for 40 bucks, might even be able to talk them down to 30.
Thoughts?
Yeah?
Nah?
It's so cheap it's almost free.

The ampeg was really great, just I ain't there yet, it's for someone that can play a live show or with a band, I'm just learning. Need something light I can move around the house and keep the volume down. I play so bad I get on my own nerves.

You all can laugh if you want 😆
I really like it though, I just need to get a box to put the speaker in. Sounds great.
