Controls 

LED: 

Flashes green for one second when Remote is 

turned on, as well as to indicate when controls are 

in use. Check battery if LED does not flash (use a 

3V 

2032  Type Li battery).

Brite: 

Boosts and cuts ultra-high frequencies for 

added brilliance.

Increases or decreases overall volume of 

your Preamp.

Reverses the phase of your signal to help 

control feedback in live settings.

Remote  off.  Remote  will  “remember”  your  most 

recent EQ setting when it is turned off.

low end response or to control “howling” feedback.

Pairing the Remote

The CUTLESS Remote can work with your guitar’s 
Preamp as well as other CUTLESS Preamps. 

1.

 

Charge the CUTLESS Preamp installed in your 
guitar by connecting the endpin jack to any 
120/220 V AC outlet with the Power Charger. 
Wait  120  seconds  before  disconnecting  the 
Charger. You are now powered up for 4 hours 
of playing time. 

2.

 

Make  sure  the  Remote  has  a  fresh  3V  2032  
Type  Li  battery  (found  at  most  Convenient 
Stores).

3.

 

Turn on the Remote.

4.

 

Connect the endpin jack to your amplifier. 

5.

 

The  CUTLESS  Preamp  will  now  wirelessly 
receive  the  Remote’s  unique  identification 
code.

6.

 

Once your Preamp is paired with your Remote, 
it will respond only to your Remote’s controls. 

Notes

Turning off the Remote will “remember” your most 
recent EQ setting in your Preamp. 
After unplugging your guitar, the CUTLESS Preamp 
will “remember” your last EQ setting until you turn 
your Remote back on and make adjustments. 
If you forget or lose your Remote, and would like 
to bypass your “remembered” EQ settings, simply 
flip the Bypass Switch located on the back of the 
Preamp (see page 10).

Important:

  Be  sure  to  flip  the  Bypass  Switch 

back  to  its  original  position  before  using  your 
Remote again. 

If two or more players are using CUTLESS Systems 
less  than  30  feet  (10  meters)  apart  from  each 
other, turn off and unplug one system while the 
other pairs its Remote with its Preamp. Then turn 
the  Remote  of  the  first  system  off,  and  pair  the 
second before playing.
