USING THE BLEND CONTROL
Some electric basses are equipped with a stereo jack that outputs
the signals from two pickups such as a magnetic pickup and a piezo
bridge transducer at the same time.
To accommodate, the Bassbone
is equipped with a BLEND switch
that turns on both channels
simultaneously and lets you use
the LEVEL-1 and 2 controls to
mix the sound of both pickups.
The BLEND switch is recessed to
prevent accidental use. Using a
small screwdriver, push the switch
inward to turn the blend function on.
Depending on your instrument the pickups can connect in a couple of
ways. If your bass has separate ¼” outputs for each pickup you can
simply connect to channels-1 and 2 using standard coaxial instrument
cables.

Some basses use a 'stereo' jack to output both pickup signals. If your
bass uses one stereo TRS ¼” jack you can use an 'insert' type cable
where the signal is sent to separate ¼" plugs. Because channel-2 is
optimized for acoustic piezo pickups, you will want to ensure the the
piezo pickup is connected to channel-2.
