Frequently asked questions

What type of battery is required for the guitar?

The instrument requires a DC9V, S-006P (6F22) or equivalent dry cell battery.

How do I know when the battery needs replacing?

The BATT. indicator will light briefly when a plug is inserted or removed, and it lights up again when the battery charge is low.

What happens if I leave the guitar plugged in without amplification?

The built-in preamplifier turns on automatically; you should remove the plug to turn off the preamp power and save battery life.

How does the tuner indicate if a string is in tune?

The string is in tune when both the low pitch lamp (~@) and the high pitch lamp (Bb) light up simultaneously.
