The bracket can also be fixed to the bass guitar
using the strap pin.
An alternate method is to attach the bracket using
the bass guitar’s strap pin. Loosen the screw
holding the strap pin to the bass guitar body, slide
the slot in the bracket under the pin, then tighten
the pin screw until the bracket is held firmly in
position.
* Attach enough cushion (double-sided adhesive) so
that the screws, that are used to fix the bracket to
the controller, do not come in contact with the
bass guitar body.
* 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.
* The bracket can also be used in combination with
suction cups.
Cushion Attachment
Attach three pieces of controller cushion to the
bottom of the controller.
Suction Cup Attachment
Insert the three suction cups into the three holes on
the bottom of the controller unit, then simply press
the controller unit onto the bass guitar top at the
appropriate location.
* Make sure the surface or your bass guitar top is
free from any dirt and grease.
* The suction cups can be removed by slightly lifting
the edge of each cup.
If your bass guitar body is not flat (arched top, etc.),
use as many of the controller cushions (double-
sided adhesive) as needed in the appropriate
location(s) to position the controller as required.
* Make sure the surface or your bass guitar top is free
from any dirt and grease.
Screw Attachment
Double check the attachment position of the
controller before attaching.
1. Place the controller in exactly the position it
is to be installed, and mark the center of the
screw hole. Set the controller unit aside and
carefully drill a 2mm (0.08", approx.)
diameter hole at the marked location. Make
sure the hole is drilled vertically.
2. In the same manner described in the “Double-
sided Adhesive Tape Attachment” section,
attach the double-sided adhesive tape to the
bottom of the controller unit.
3. Making sure that the screw hole in the control-
ler is perfectly aligned with the screw hole,
attach the controller unit to the bass guitar
body. Screw the supplied self-tapping screw
(3x16mm) into the pre-drilled hole in the body
through the hole in the controller. Make sure
that the screw does not go in crooked.
