Use a tuning meter, pitch pipe, tuning fork, piano, etc., and tune the open strings to the pitches shown below. • If the string’s pitch is high, loosen the string until the string’s pitch is slightly lower than the tuning pitch, then tune while raising the string’s pitch.
Changing Strings As the strings get old, sound quality will gradually decrease, and it will become difficult to tune the instrument. Change the strings as soon as you think they are getting old. Make sure you purchase a set of nylon guitar strings. The Silent Guitar uses a string length of 650mm (25-9/16 inch).
The Silent Guitar operates either on battery power or with an AC adaptor however, it will consume more power when the reverb function is in use. For that reason, we recommend that it be powered with the supplied AC power adaptor for normal use. Always turn the PHONES ON/OFF switch OFF before making AC power connec- tions or replacing the battery.
Using the Controls I Using the LINE OUT jack Use a standard phone plug cable to connect the Silent Guitar’s LINE OUT jack to the input jack on the guitar amplifier or powered speaker, etc. When the cable’s plug is inserted into the LINE OUT jack, power will be supplied to the Silent Guitar and the power lamp will light.
