Attaching the GK-2B to Your Bass

Controller Spacer
Attaching the controller
with screws
1. Place the controller on the surface of your
bass, and decide where you're going to
attach it.
At this time, keep in mind the following points.
* Is the controller where it will not interfere with
your playing?
* Is the controller in a position where it can be
operated easily?
* Will the controller interfere with the divided
pickup?
* Is strain being placed on the normal pickup input
jack, the divided pickup, or the GK connector
cable?
* Do the plugs inserted in the GK connector or
normal pickup input jack protrude beyond the
bass? If they protrude, strain may be placed on
the GK connector or normal pickup input jack
when the bass is set down, damaging them.
2. When you have decided where to attach the
controller, place the controller on that
location, and from above, drill pilot holes
into the body of your bass through the
holes in the controller.
* Before you drill pilot holes, check once again to
make sure that there are no problems with how
the divided pickup is installed.
* A diameter of approximately 2 mm is appropriate
for the pilot holes.

3. Affix double-sided tape to the bottom of the
controller, and fasten it using the included
screws (flat headed tapping screws).

Put the screw (flat-head) through this hole.
* If you are attaching the controller to a bass with a
rounded body (e.g., an arched top), there may be
gaps between the controller and the bass, making
it difficult to attach the controller. In this case,
affix the included controller spacers to places on
the body where such gaps appear.
Use a knife or scissors to cut the body spacer to
an appropriate shape.
