Zackattack,
Welcome to the forum!

Try this as a test:
Turn all guitar knobs to "10", all amp knobs to "1", just to test for sound, first.
Amp power on, volume levels adjusted, it should work.
If not, guitar pickups could be a cause, a defective cable (guitar to amp) could be a cause, or the amp itself could be a cause.

To narrow it down further, try connecting the cable from a home stereo headphone jack, to the amp, to see if you can get music from the amp. If you can, you've eliminated the amp and the cable, and your guitar would be the next thing to test!

Let us know what you find out, if you need more help to figure it out...
I'm not a real Guitar Hero, but I play one on TV!
