    Welcome Thank you for making Fishman a part of your acoustic experience.

Troubleshooting If you are unfamiliar with this product, please pay close attention to the requirements for installation.

  • Page 3: Installation

    Installation 1. Measure the opening of the wing slot on the bridge with a vernier caliper. The opening should be between .060” and .090” (1.5mm and 2.3mm) for proper fi t. If the wing slot measures less than .060” (1.5mm), employ a qualifi ed repairman to enlarge the wing slot.
  • Page 4 2. Slide the V-100 Transducer into the wing slot of the bridge. Make certain that the sensing element is in contact with the wing face and that the spring is in contact with the corresponding “leg” face of the bridge.
  • Page 5 3. Jack installation: For V-100: Once the transducer is properly installed in the bridge, attach the output jack to the tailpiece with the black plastic tie wrap. For V-200: After fi tting the pickup to the violin, locate the jack to the left of the chinrest on your violin and tighten it with the enclosed chinrest key.

  • Page 6: Fine Tuning

    Fine Tuning Once the pickup is properly mounted, plug the instrument into an amplifi er and play at a low volume. Carefully shift the pickup a small distance within the slot and test using the trial and error method, listening for the the best location. Note: If installation is to be permanent, a small drop of adhesive on the side (lower face) of the transducer can be used.
  • Page 7 Plugging In An impedance matching preamp is recommended, but not required. This will help realize the full frequency response potential of the pickup and allow for cable runs longer than 10 feet without signal deterioration. Use a high quality, low capacitance ¼” shielded instrument cable. This will ensure minimal tone coloration and hum.
