Oh you're right!
I thought it might have been the main connection between the guitar and the amp... that would have a lot more current in it, potentially, right?
I keep forgetting that I actually need to use the glasses that I now have, lol.
No, the guitar to amp "instrument line" has even lower current than the line in.
The only hazard with music instruments is if someone turns on phantom power 48V to a microphone that doesn't use it. Then the grill can give a nasty shock and typically right on the lips.
Huh!
Well TIL, thank you!
