Alterna ve Power Source - 9V Ba ery
The Musashi preamp may also be powered by a typical 9V alkaline ba ery (6LR61 or 6F22)
which is also a func onality enhancement for your instrument. This feature may be life-saving
if one forgets to fully charge the ba ery, before performing on stage. One should emphasize
the fact that solely the preamp can be powered with the use of a 9V ba ery. In such a case,
there is no op on of using the headphone amp.
The 9V ba ery compartment is located in the back, next to the
electronics cover. To make it easier to install the ba ery, the cover
is a ached magne cally. No tools are required to remove it. It is
enough to delicately press it with a finger, where the PUSH sign
is visible. This will li the cover on the other side, allowing the user
to fully remove it. The ba ery compartment features a ba ery
holder that makes it easier to install the ba ery and keeps it steady,
so that no unwanted sounds appear if the ba ery was to poten ally
stay loose inside, and hit the compartment walls when the
instrument moves.
power source should be switched manually. For that purpose, a mini slide
switch is used - placed on the electronics cover, designated SOURCE. The
toggle has two posi ons, an upper one (ACCU), and a lower one (9V). When
the slide switch is in the upper posi on, the electronics use the onboard
Lithium-Polymer ba ery. When the slide switch is set to the lower posi on,
the 9V ba ery is used instead. The mini switch slider does not protrude over
the plate - a sharp tool is best used to change its se ng, such as a small Allen wrench in the
instrument kit, a mini-screwdriver, a toothpick, or even a string core p. The switch posi on
change should be done very carefully, not to damage this delicate element.
If one decides to use the 9V ba ery, alkaline or lithium ba eries are recommended, offering
far greater capacity and stable voltage. Op onally, a 9V rechargeable ba ery can also be used.
