Mosaic
This model has one dual-action
truss rod, which allows the
neck to be adjusted in either
direction. Therefore, it is possi-
ble to compensate for under-
bow or overbow.
Making adjustments.
Remove
the cover plate behind the
string nut on your instrument.
Using the 4mm hex wrench
supplied with your instrument,
turn the adjusting nut clockwise
to decrease the amount of
relief and straighten the neck,
or counterclockwise to
increase the amount of relief,
giving the neck underbow.
Mosaic Pro
This model has a single rod
for neck adjustment. Dual
graphite bars embedded in
this neck add extra stiffness
and assist the truss rod in
providing a balanced adjust-
ment.
Making adjustments.
Locate
the adjustment nut at the heel
of the neck. Using the 9/64"
hex wrench supplied with your
instrument, turn the adjusting
nut clockwise to decrease the
amount of relief and straight-
en the neck, or counterclock-
wise to increase the amount
of relief giving the neck under-
bow.
Electronics
The electronics on your Zon bass are made to provide you with versatil-
ity and optimal tonal shaping. Each “package” is designed to work in
conjunction with and complement the other components of the instru-
ment so that the “sum of all the parts” will culminate in the distinctive
voice prescribed for that particular model.
General
All of our active electronics use the highest-quality components for low-
noise, long-term use and reliability. Power consumption varies with each
circuit, depending on the complexity of its functions. Low power
reserves are indicated by a loss of output and an increase in noise or
distortion. To remedy this situation, change the battery (or batteries).
Before changing the batteries, be sure the cable is
not
plugged into the
output jack of the bass. Remove the backplate screws and cover, and
then unclip the battery from the harness. Be careful not to yank the har-
ness, as this action may cause the wires to break from their connec-
tions.
Transfer the foam jacket (which helps prevent the metal case of the bat-
tery from shorting the components) from the old battery onto the new
one and attach the harness connector in place. Install the backplate and
connect the guitar cable to test.
Note:
To prolong battery life, unplug your instrument when you are not
playing. If your bass requires two batteries, always change both of them
at the same time.
Warning:
Replace the battery with a good-quality 9-volt alkaline. Do not
use rechargeable batteries.
