Conltrols are provided for both Volume and Tone. An Auriliary Input jack (attenuated by its own Volume control) allows another signal to be amplified simultaneously.
A Line Out jack allows the MA-5 to be used as a pre amplifier, and can send the signal to a recording or mixing console. A headphone jack ls provlded for private monitoring or practicing.
