Attaching the GK-3 to the Guitar
Checking and Finely Adjusting the Pickup Height
Use the clearance gauge to confirm that the clearance between each string and the pickup is
about 1 mm. If the gap is greater than 1 mm (0.04”), make fine adjustments to the height of the
pickup itself and to the pickup curve (refer to p. 8).
Attaching the Controller
There are two ways to attach the controller.
Attaching the Controller Unit with
Holder (p. 15)
With this method, the holder is secured
using the guitar’s strap pin. This permits
easy installation with no modification of the
guitar required.
Attaching the Controller Unit with
Double–Sided Tape and Screws (p. 16)
This allows you to position the controller
where you like on the guitar and, by not
using the holder, reduce the thickness of the
controller. However, attaching the controller
with the tape and screw is difficult to do
with arched top guitars.
Adjusting the Length of the Pickup Cable
Place the controller where it is actually to be attached to the guitar to check the pickup cable
length. If the cable is too long, wind it up in the space behind the controller.
