That circuit is to allow an external cab to be connected to the amp, not an amp to be connected to the internal speaker.
Just shorting the output of the internal amp would be safe enough when using the speaker with an external amp. Fender have done this for years on many of their older amps.
Is this going to work?

And done. Plugging in to "Intrnal SPK" jack connects to internal speaker & disconnects internal OT

Thank you Mike for saving me from that murderous psychopath Jb.

Re: Is this going to work?
I realise this might traumatise more sensitive souls so viewer discretion is advised:
Never seen this before and it works a treat! So now, as well as a functioning AC4 I have a Jansen powered 1x10 Greenback cab. Tight, midrange focus, not too much bass and when pushed, much louder than I expected and an all round useful addition to the collection.
Thanks for working your magic, Mike!

To coin the phrase "horse riding the jockey".
Difference is an accident of birth and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict

Re: Is this going to work?
Is it just the angle of the photo or is that Jansen just balancing on the AC4's handle?

A google search for "Magic Mike" does not disappoint!
