Installation and operation manual
For External Only
Unwind the cable, select the direction for a left-handed or right-handed guitar on the pickup, and secure the cable in the appropriate place.
Loosen the screws of the pickup slightly.
Place the pickup into the resonator hole and tighten the screws.
Connect the XLR connector to the microphone input of your combo, mixer, audio interface, etc.
Turn on phantom power (12–48 V DC) if it is not enabled by default.
Modern audio equipment usually provides it.
IMPORTANT – our recommendation:
If your audio interface, acoustic amplifier, or other device doesn’t provide phantom power —
You can use a phantom power adapter, widely available in music stores.
These affordable adapters are designed exactly for this purpose. Use a phantom power adapter and forget about unstable batteries forever.
Recommended phantom power box models:
• Aokeo 1-Channel 48V Phantom Power Supply – affordable and easy-to-use unit that comes with a cable.
