Attaching the GK-3 to the Guitar
■
Attaching the Pickup with the Pickup Holder
1. Attach the divided pickup to the pickup
holder.
fig.1105
* Tighten the screws until the pickup lightly presses
down against the rubber sheet.
2. Remove the strings and the bridge
from the guitar.
3. Lower the two bridge height
adjustment screws of the guitar
approximately 2 mm (0.08”).
* If the bridge is of the type whereby the posts
themselves are adjusted, then lower the post height
by 2 mm (0.08”).
4. Place the holder on the posts, then
cover it with the bridge.
fig.1105 (Attachment with the Holders)
5. Restring and tune the guitar.
* Tune the strings with the divided pickup adjusted to
the optimal position (where all strings ride over their
respective yokes).
6. Adjust the height of the pickup.
* The pickup height should be adjusted so that the
distance between the pickup and the strings is about
1.0 mm (0.04") when the highest frets on the first
and sixth strings are fingered. Check the height
using the supplied clearance gauge (1.0 mm).
* If the pickup ends up being too low, use two rubber
sheets layered together.
But the pickup still sits too low even after layering
the two rubber sheets, then use the rubber tubes.
fig.1105-2e
* If the pickup position is too high, insert the included
13-mm washers between the pickup holder and the
bridge.
* Afterwards, when connecting to GK-compatible
devices, you will need to adjust the pickup
sensitivity again. However, you may find that the
sensitivity level on the GK-compatible device is too
high. In such instances, you may be able to correct
the problem by widening the clearance between the
strings and the pickup, so try lowering the Pickup
height slightly to see if this approach is effective.
