previously drilled in the instrument. Ensure that the screw is only finger-tight. Over tighten-
ing the screw can damage the controller or the instrument.
Note:
The controller can be attached to practically any body type using the adhesive strips
or pads. For more information, please see “Reusable adhesive pads” below.
Adhesives may react chemically with some instrument finishes, resulting in discolora-
tion or other damage. If in doubt, apply a small piece of adhesive strip/pad in an in-
conspicuous location for several days to determine whether they affect the finish of the
instrument.
If your instrument has a curved top or the installation location is shaped in such a way
that the controller cannot be attached using adhesive strips alone, apply spacers to
compensate for the uneven surface. Like the strips, the spacers also have adhesive
on both sides which is protected by backing paper.
The adhesive pads can be used in the same way as the strips to attach the controller.
The pads can be reused many times, and can be washed carefully with a neutral
cleaning product to remove dust and dirt, restoring their adhesive properties. When
removing the controller, put the original protective backing back on the pads to keep
them in good condition.
Mounting with Velcro
1.
Cut the Velcro strips, which are attached to one another, into three sections and apply
them to the underside of the controller.
Cut the Velcro into three
sections
Underside of the controller
2.
Remove the protective backing from the other side of the Velcro strips and attach the
controller to the guitar body.
3.
The controller can now be gently pulled off and reattached to the body as needed.
Note:
This is not the most secure mounting method and should only be used if no other op-
tion is suitable, or if the pickup will be used often on different instruments.
