1.  Determine the approximate location of

the transducer by measuring about 1.5"
(3.8 cm) below the bridge and a 1.5"
(3.8 cm) below the highest pitched
string and note the position where these
two measurements meet.  This will
serve as a test location (Fig.1).

2.  Apply an adhesive pad to the shiny brass face of the transducer and mount at the location

indicated in Step 1. The transducer wire should follow the grain of the soundboard and point
toward the soundhole of the instrument.

Check the location by plugging in the pickup and listening. Should the position prove unsatis-
factory, move the pickup in 1/4" increments, and re-test, until you find the best position.

Carefully slide a guitar pick or credit card between the transducer and the soundboard to
release the foam adhesive. Residual adhesive should then be removed from the brass sur-
face of the transducer.

CAUTION:  TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE TRANSDUCER WHEN REMOVING THE
ADHESIVE PAD, DO NOT PULL THE WIRE OR BEND THE TRANSDUCER.

3.  Once you have found the "sweet spot" for the pickup, mount it at the same spot inside the

instrument.
