Mode. Then, as the note starts to sustain, switch to Harmonic Mode. By varying the notes, timing, etc., you can produce
some amazing effects with the Infinity String Sustainer.
3. Low Battery LED Indicator:
For better performance and increased battery life, the Infinity String Sustainer uses two
(2) nine-volt batteries wired in series for a total of 18 volts. When properly charged, the battery LED indicator will NOT
light. When the LED does light, this indicates that it is time to replace BOTH batteries.
4. Master Volume:
Controls master volume output of guitar.
5. Master Tone:
Controls master tone output of guitar.
6. Sustainer Intensity:
When the Infinity String Sustainer is ON, this controls the amount of Sustain. You'll notice that
this control has a center detent. Typically, we recommend using the Infinity String Sustainer in this position (center).
However, feel free to play around with this control!
For MORE Sustainer effect, rotate this control clockwise. In the maximum sustain position, you can produce
some KILLER feedback!
For LESS Sustainer effect, rotate this control counter-clockwise.
7. Five Position Pickup Selector:
When the Infinity Sustainer is OFF, this operates as follows:
Position 1: Bridge Pickup Only Position 2: Bridge & Middle Pickup
Position 3: Middle Pickup Only Position 4: Middle and Neck Pickup
Position 5: Neck Pickup Only
When the String Sustainer is ON, this selector is NOT functional. Only the Bridge pickup (in combination with the neck
pickup Sustainer driver) is functional.
8. Battery Compartment:
Using a small-headed Phillips screwdriver, remove the battery compartment cover to expose
the two (2) nine-volt batteries. To replace batteries, carefully remove the battery connections from the top of the
batteries. For BEST performance, ALWAYS replace with ALKALINE batteries. Also - ALWAYS replace BOTH batteries
at the SAME time.
NOTE: Insertion of a 1/4" instrument cable into the output jack activates the Infinity Sustainer circuit. With a cable
inserted and the Sustainer ON/OFF switch in the ON position, the batteries are in use. Therefore, it is best to UNPLUG
your instrument when not in use to avoid unnecessary battery drain.
9. Driver Pickup:
For BEST performance, the driver (neck) pickup should be as close to the strings as possible but
without touching the strings!
