Attaching the Divided Pickup
There are two ways to attach the divided pickup.
● Attaching the Pickup with Double-
Sided Tape (p. 9)
This provides the simplest way to attach the
pickup to flat-top basses.
*
Do not place any unnecessary strain on the cable connecting the pickup and the controller. This may result in breaking.
*
Do not bend or twist the pickup. Use particular care when removing the pickup.
■ Attaching the Pickup with Double-Sided Tape
1. You decide on the location in which to
install the pickup.
For a 4-string bass:
Attach the divided pickup so that the center
marker is between strings 2 (D) and 3 (A),
the 2nd string marker is directly below string
1 (G), and the 5th string marker is directly
below string 4 (E).

Depending on the GK-compatible device, it is
possible to install the pickup so that the center
marker is between strings 1 and 2, or between
strings 3 and 4. Refer to the manual for your GK-
compatible device.

● Attaching the Pickup with Screws (p. 12)
This method features the benefit of allowing
the pickups to be finely adjusted later on, but
it is somewhat difficult to carry out.
For a 5-string bass:
Attach the divided pickup so that the center
marker is between strings 2 (D) and 3 (A),
the 2nd string marker is directly below string
1 (G), and the 5th string marker is directly
below string 4 (E).
