Greetings, I just bought one of those Idea MP3 Ovations for a travel guitar like when I go to the park and any outdoor playing. I own 7 Ovations but don't want to take my expensive ones out of my home studio. I can't figure out how to use the headphones and listen to myself play in real time like I can with my pocket rocket guitar amp. Also, there is no manual. Can anyone help?? Thanks

Read up at http://www.ideafordummies.com/ like Cholloway sez.

But I will tell you in advance, you will NOT hear your guitar playing through the headphone jack.
You will only hear the MP3 player.

You CAN attach your Pocket Rockit to the guitar's output jack and hear it all.

I am guessing that since the CC54i (or whichever model you have) is an Acoustic guitar, the designers figured that you can hear the Guitar acoustically... So all you need to hear through the headphones is the accompaniment (backing tracks).
