Default Is the Bugera V22 Infinium effects loop serial or parallel?

I could not find any reference online. Does anyone know? (I suspect Steve DeRosa will have the answer to this.)

Thanks.

Update: Logic would tell me it's serial, based on the manual saying this: "FX LOOP - Route an external effects processor into your signal chain or send the preamp tone to a power amplifier." Does this mean FX Send is effectively a "Line Out" connection? Also, does plugging in to the Send port only effectively bypass the connection to the internal power amp?

Do not own a Bugera and I may know just enough to be dangerous, so take this with a grain of salt .

But in general, I would think if the Bug has no level control for the FX loop it, it is probably serial If it has a dedicated level or mix control for the FX loop it is probably parallel

That is my assumption as well.

I too am "guessing" it's a serial effects loop but it's just a guess.
