Tone Control (3)

Simple passive tone control. Rotating clockwise increas- es treble while rotating counterclockwise decreases tre- ble.

Output Jack (4)

The output jack accepts standard guitar patch cords. (We recommend high-quality Peavey “shielded” patch cords.)

Adjustments

Your instrument has been carefully adjusted at the Peavey factory for accurate intonation and playing ease. However, your playing style and requirements may necessitate addi- tional adjustments. These should be made by your autho- rized Peavey dealer; but with a little care and by closely adhering to the following instructions, you may attempt these adjustments yourself.

Please read the instructions thoroughly before attempting any adjustments.

Torsion Rod (1)

All guitar necks have a slight amount of bow to keep the strings from “buzzing” on the frets. This instrument

features an easy access torsion rod adjust- ment wheel located at the end of the neck. This wheel can be adjusted with a hex wrench or small screwdriver. Just insert the tool into the adjustment wheel and rotate accordingly.

1. Tune the instrument to

1

standard (A-440) pitch.

 

2. Fret the sixth string (E) at the

 

first and last frets.

 

3. Check for clearance between

 

the string and the

 

eighth fret.
