1 Pickup
This is the actual “pickup” unit which converts
the physical motion of the guitar’s strings into an
electrical signal which can be processed by the
G1D and transmitted to the G50 Guitar MIDI
Converter.

CAUTION!
• Because of its slender dimensions the pickup
unit is quite delicate and can be damaged if sub-
jected to unnecessary force, bending, or twisting.
Handle the pickup carefully!
2 Multi-pin Cable Connector
This is the main output from the G1D. One end
of the multi-pin cable supplied with the G50 Guitar
MIDI Converter is plugged in here, and the other
end of the cable is plugged into the DIVIDED
INPUT connector on the G50. The multi-pin cable
connector delivers both the individual string output
from the G1D pickup and the combined output
from the guitar’s output jack to the G50 Guitar
MIDI Converter. It also supplies power from the
G50 to the G1D, and sends the control signals
produced by the G1D UP/DOWN buttons and
VOL control to the G50.

3 Direct Guitar Input Jack
This jack receives the combined output from
the guitar’s normal pickups from the guitar’s output
jack. The short cable supplied with the G1D is
used to connect the guitar’s output jack (large 1/4"
phone jack end of the cable) to the G1D direct
guitar input jack (small mini-jack end of the cable).

control to MIDI master volume data which is sent
to the tone generator). Use the guitar’s original
volume controls to adjust the volume of the direct
guitar sound.
