The BASS TREBLE and PRESENCE tone controls are normal 
boost / cut shelving controls.

The MIDDLE (midrange) tone control is a normal boost / cut 
tone filter. 

The center detent on these tone controls yields a flat tone re-
sponse.“+12 ” boosts the tone; “-12“ cuts the tone.

6.  LOW BATT. (LOW BATTERY LED LIGHT)

The LED will light when the battery has lost power. Replace the 
battery when this light is on.

This LED light will flash when a cable is connected to the out-
put jack of the pickup system. This shows the battery is good.

BATTERY

A 9-volt battery powers the B-Band A5T preamp. Before con-
necting the instrument to an amplifier or mixer please check 
that a fully charged 9-volt battery is connected.

7.  CHROMATIC TUNER
8.  TUNER ON / OFF BUTTON 

   Note Readout Display

Flat LED 

Sharp LED 

     Half Step LED 

   

    In-Tune LED
          

The  tuner  will  work  with  or  without  a  cable  plugged  into  the 
output jack. 

Pushing the tuner button (8) turns ON the tuner. When the tuner 
is active the pickup system output is muted. No sound will go to 
the amplifier or mixer when the tuner is active. 

Pushing the tuner button (8) again turns the tuner OFF and the 
pickup  system  output  will  be  active  and  sound  will  go  to  the 
amplifier. 

If the tuner is ON and the tuner button is not pushed within 2 
minutes  the  tuner  will  turn  OFF  automatically  and  sound  re-
turned to the output.

The tuner has a seven Note Readout Display; Half-step (#) LED; 
Sharp arrow LED; Flat arrow LED and In-Tune LED.   

The tuner Note Readout Display shows the nearest note of one 
plucked string’s sound. If the note showing is a half step (for 
example A#; C#, D# and so), the half-step (#) LED will light. 

If the Sharp LED is showing the string needs to be lowered in 
pitch. 

If the Flat LED is showing the string needs to be raised in pitch.

When the In-Tune LED lights the string is at the correct pitch of 
the note displayed at the Note Readout Display.

SETTING UP THE PREAMP FOR USE

Tune the guitar. See the tuner instructions at 10 and 11. 

Before plugging a cable into the guitar’s output jack, turn the 
volume  control  OFF  (“0”),  turn  the  4-band  EQ  controls  to  the 
middle  position  center  detent  (half  way  between  “-12”  and 
“+12”) and turn the tuner OFF.

Check that the 9-volt battery is good.
