Question, if you were to plug a microphone into your kareoke machine instead of the guitar, would it make your voice soound distorted? No. Because the K.M. isn't designed to distort what is imputted. And your electric guitar? The pick-ups on it just pick up the vibrations and transfer it to whichever amplifier you happen to be using. The distortion you are looking for is something a guitar amplifier can do -- not the guitar (other than a wha-wha bar), provided that "feature" is turned on. If you insist on having your K.M. distort your guitar playing, turn te volum up as loud as it will go. Chances are, you'll get into the overload range and provided you don't blow your speaker out, it will sound distorted...

A guitar amp is made for guitars, that's just the way it is. A karaoke machine isn't made for the types of sounds and frequencies a guitar can produce, in fact, using it may wreck that karaoke machine, I believe.

the machine is designed to play a microphone for clearity. You could get a pedal but you blow your machine. GEt an adaptor from radio shack that can turn the red and white plugs to a guitar plug and use your stereo(plug into cd or tape run to adaptor plug to guitar)That what i use to do . GEt a head Nero and plug it to your computer so you can play with headphones and use nero to add effects. kind of expensive though.
