[HAM] What model is it?

[John Lynch]

Couldn't you just run the chorus generator output through a second preamp? 
I'm not technically educated but doesn't the chorus generator have an input 
from the keys (or indirectly from the primary tone generator) and some kind 
of output to the preamp?...or is the output piggy backed into the primary 
tone generator and from there to the preamp? I know there is a way to bypass 
the chorus generator, is there no way to reroute the output? -JL
