The new preamp will take the place
of one of your volume pots. Install the
Blackouts Modular Preamp through the
hole where your original potentiometer
was located. Depending on the diam-
eter of your existing pot, a reamer may
be required to open the hole. Use the
washer and nut to secure it snugly to
the guitar.
4.
Install all remaining 25K potentiometers.
5.
Install the battery clip, and connect the
red wire from the battery clip to the +9V
station on the Output Connector. (Don’t
install a battery yet.)
6.
Insert the wires from all pickups into the
Pickup Connector.
Tip:
Tweezers can make
this step go much faster. Tighten the connec-
tor screws using the included screwdriver.
