  Its late and Im tired, Sorry about spelling errors and I think Im over thinking this.   I should just delete that last entry as it makes me look like the jerk that I feel I am.

The male jack with the tip and ring carry the + and the - signal from the vox and when the male jack is inserted, the amp is disconnected, but the current from the
vox now flows into the two speakers and it does everything I asked of you.

I appreciate your help and I will go to bed now and dream of going to electronics school for years so Im not a dummy.

Thank You !!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You so much for your help, and Im so glad I can do this  !!!!!!!  YEA !!!!!!   Im the only one going to be using it, so I will put the jack in the back of the amp so no one else
can even see it.

I appreciate your help very much !!!


http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics,_pickups/Components:_Jacks/9-lug_Stereo_Jack.html  Im wondering if I should buy the
stewmac 9 pin, as I dont see how your diagram is going to get the speakers to work with a Mono male jack inserted into it.  I can see
where the leaves will rise and disconnect the amp from the speakers, but not how the speakers are still connected still.

Im such a newb, and Im very sorry if I just dont understand all of this, but the photos of the jack dont tell me very much about what happens
to both sides when a male jack is inserted. From the photo I guess that only one side gets lifted up and the photo here makes it look
like ONLY the 2 and 3 leave have lifted and not the number 1.     If all on right side stay connected and all three on right are disconnected, then
how does a single mono jack do it?    The tip is the white ( ground ) and the single circle around the shaft is the power ???/

I cant say Im sorry enough, but I just want to make sure I dont screw it up.   If you say your diagram is all I need, then I believe you, I just
dont know how the jack works.    Thanks Bro  !!!!

I just ordered a used Frontman 212R from guitar center and it will be here in a few days. As its used, I dont mind drilling some holes in it and
installing some new jacks to help with what I would like to accomplish.

The manual I downloaded about the Fender 212R is very sketchy to me, in that M makes it sound like you can hook up another head amp to the 212r and just use the speakers and not the 212 head. 

The above photos show a stereo jack with leaves that can lift up when a jack is inserted. If I were to intall one of these in the 212, and hook up the 212 amp and then the speakers to the proper poles......you can use the 212 like a normal combo amp........but if I hook up other wires to the speakers only and you put in a speaker wire male jack
( not guitar wire cable, I learned that much ) then I could run the two speakers from the 212 back to the extension out jack on my Vox AC15C2, and use the 212 just as an extension cab ?????

Any help with what parts or wires to buy would be helpful, and I appreciate the help very much.

Thank You all very much !!!
