*There is no need to change the settings if you are making them for the first time or if you are not using multiple GK settings. In this case, select [1] Set A, the factory default setting.

*If it is difficult to determine the direction in which the GK pickup was installed on a GK compatible guitar, try it out initially at the [1] NORMAL setting.

If there is no response from the meter when you play string 6 during the GK SENS 6 settings (p. 13), but there is a response when you play string 1, change the setting to [2] REVERSE.
