POWERSUPPLY

The label on the back/under side of the product indicates the mains voltage to which it must be connected. Check that the mains voltage corresponds to this. Any other voltage than the one indicated may cause irreparable damage to the unit. The unit must also be connected directly to the mains voltage and no dimmer or adjustable power supply may be used.

Always connect the device to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the device has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

STORE THE GUITAR

• Do not keep the instrument close to a fire or flame, and keep it on a low, stable surface.
• Do not leave the instrument leaning against the wall, etc., in the vicinity of children.
• Long-term storage in the hard case may have an adverse effect on the guitar. Open the case occasionally to let air circulate within the case.
• If the instrument is not going to be used for an extended period of time, keep the instrument in a place other than those listed below.

■ Locations subject to direct sunlight.
- Locations subject to extremely high or low temperatures.
- Locations subject to high humidity, dust, or vibration.
- During the summer season, temperatures inside of a car can become extremely hot. Do not leave the instrument inside of a car.

AMPLIFIER

1. Guitar input – Plug in your guitar here.
2. Gain - Adjust the amount of pre-amp gain. High gain setting will supply more distortion and sustain.
3. Tone - Rotate to adjust the tonal quality of the amplifier.
4. Volume – Rotate to adjust the overall volume.

STRING SETUP

String height refers to the space between the strings and frets, and has an affect on playability. String height is adjusted with the bridge and/or the saddle on the bridge. Adjust height by alternately turning the screws little by little on the left and right sides. Set too high and the instrument is hard to play. Too low results in fret noise. Adjust so that the space between the string and the last fret measures as follows:

String	Tuning	Height
1	E	1.9mm
2	B	2.0mm
3	G	2.1mm
4	D	2.2mm
5	A	2.3mm
6	E	2.4mm

Saddle Adjuster

To check intonation, compare the harmonic tone (12th fret) to the fretted tone (12th fret).

- If fretted pitch is higher than harmonic, saddle must be moved backward to lengthen string.

- If fretted pitch is lower than harmonic, saddle must be moved forward to shorten string.

TUNING MACHINE TENSION ADJUSTMENT

The tuning machines have spring-loaded mechanisms which automatically take up wear, preventing backlash. However, it is possible to adjust the amount of pressure required to turn the machines. Each machine has a tension adjustment screw, as illustrated.

Clockwise screw rotation tightens the machine. The tuning machines should be adjusted to the extent that they are firm, but can turn smoothly. This adjustment is normally unnecessary, and excessive tightening can lead to premature tuning machine wear.

CHANGE THE STRINGS

1. Unwind the old string at the tuning machine at the top of the neck (it is recommended to change 1 string at a time).
2. Push the old string through the body of the guitar through the hole in the bridge.
3. Insert a new string through the corresponding hole (compare the thickness of the new string to the old string to make sure it is the correct string).
4. Run the string over the nut in the bridge and along the neck.
5. Feed the string through the hole in the tuning machine post.
6. Bend the string around the post and wind the string using a tuning peg.

4. If you select 'Chromatic', the display will show the note name.
5. If you select 'Guitar' or 'Bass', the display will show the string number and the note name.
6. Play a single note on your instrument, the note name or string number is displayed. The backlight changes and the measuring range is displayed.
7. If the backlight turns green and the gauge is centered, the note is in tune correctly.
8. If the backlight turns blue and the indicator is pointing to the left, the tuning is too low.
9. If the backlight turns blue and the display is pointing to the right, the tuning is too high.
