If you are unfamiliar with this product, please pay
close attention to the dimensional requirements for
installation. Failure to do so can result in permanent
damage to the pickup.
Installation of this product is a straightforward
procedure, but we recommend this job only if you
are an experienced repair technician.
Preliminary
The Archtop Guitar Pickup features a piezo-ceramic
element preinstalled in the bridge. Use your pre-
ferred method for bridge fi tting. Up to .125” may be
removed from the top of the bridge (measured from
the center) as shown in Figure 1.
Special care must be taken not to damage the
pickup wire when tooling the bridge blank.
Installing The Jack
After fi tting the pickup, mount the supplied external
jack as follows:
a. Remove the shielding cap from the jack and
thread the pickup wire through it.
b. Solder the signal wire from the pickup to the tip
connection on the jack.
c. Solder the shield from the pickup to the ground
tab on the jack.
Replace and tighten shielding cap.
d. Install the jack as shown in Figure 2. If the instru-
ment has a metal tailpiece, attach the supplied
ground wire to it. If the instrument has a wooden
tailpiece, attach the ground wire to the ball ends of
the strings.
