The Re-usable Adhesive Pads
The re-usable adhesive pads can be used in the
same way as the standard double-sided adhesive
tape for controller unit installation. They can be re-
used many times, and if their adhesive qualities
deteriorate due to accumulated dust and dirt, they
can be restored to virtually like-new conditions by
washing carefully with a neutral detergent. If you
do repeatedly attach and remove the re-usable
adhesive pads, it is a good idea to replace the
original protective backing when the pads are not
in use to keep them in top condition.
Bracket Installation
This installation option has the advantages that
no holes need to be drilled in the guitar.
To use the bracket, first unscrew the two screws
marked with arrows on the bottom of the controller
unit, then use the same screws to attach the
controller unit to the bracket as shown in the
illustration.
Next, attach the spacers (double-sided adhesive)
to the bracket to protect the guitar surface from the
screw heads, and attach the bracket to the guitar in
the appropriate position, as shown in the illustra-
tion.
An alternative method is to attach the bracket
using the guitar’s strap pin (the spacers should still
be used to prevent the controller/bracket assembly
from scratching the surface of the guitar). Loosen
the strap pin on the guitar body by unscrewing its
attachment screw by a few turns, slide the slot in
the bracket under the pin as shown in the illustra-
tion, then tighten the pin screw until the bracket is
held firmly in position.
■
CAUTION!
• Repeated loosening and tightening of the strap pin,
or application of excessive force to the bracket, can
cause the strap pin screw to become loose.
Suction Cup Installation
The supplied suction cups are a handy and
fairly secure way to attach the controller unit to
guitars with a flat top and a smooth, shiny finish.
To use the suction cups, first insert the bases of
the three suction cups into the large openings in
the three holes on the bottom of the controller unit,
then slide the bases of the cups toward the narrow
section of the holes until they are held securely.
Then, after making sure the surface of your guitar
is free from dirt and grease, simply press the
controller unit onto the guitar top at the appropriate
location.
The suction cups can be removed by slightly
lifting the edge of each cup.
