PERFORMANCE APPLICATIONS
The Cross-Over™ Bass provides the best of both worlds – the smooth sound of a fretless bass
guitar, and the easily accessible feel of an upright bass. To play as a bass guitar, simply place a
standard guitar strap on the strap pins on the back of the Cross-Over™ Bass. Upright style playing
can be accomplished on either the Telescoping Endpin or the ZOS-5 Tripod Stand. The arched
fingerboard of the Cross-Over™ Bass allows for both pizzicato style playing (with your fingers), as
well as arco style playing (with a bow – in this case, a cello bow works best).

PICKUP SYSTEM AND PREAMP
The heart of your instrument is Zeta’s patented Strados
bridge pickup. Under each string are
special piezo pickups positioned to maximize tone and signal output while rejecting feedback. The
Cross-Over’s Strados
Cross-Over’s Strados
pickup projects warmth and clarity at any volume. The pickup has a full-
frequency response of 20-20Khz. The pickup’s audio signals are processed through an active
preamp system internally mounted within the instrument. This preamp system is powered by two 9-
volt batteries and has individual gain controls for each string, with a master level output control as
well. These controls allow adjustment of the individual strings to provide even string balance. The
controls are pre-set at the factory, but can easily be adjusted to suit or taste or needs (see: Internal
Mixing Board, below).

INTERNAL MIXING BOARD
The Cross-Over Bass features an internal mixing board, where individual string volume and master
volume can be adjusted. To access the internal mixing board, simply remove the back electronics
plate using a small Phillips screwdriver. The internal mixing board is located on the main PC board,
and can be identified by the row of 6 "trim pots" along one edge, with one additional "trim pot" in
the lower right hand corner of the board. Please refer to the diagram on PAGE 6.
