Controls Bronze Series guitars The Bronze Series has 3 controls to adjust the sound of the guitar. • The first knob (closest to the bridge pickup) is the Master Volume. It controls the loudness of both pickups. • The next control is the 3-way Pickup Selector. It is used to switch the two pickups on or off. Switching the selector up will engage the neck pickup. The middle position engages both pickups, and switching it down will engage the bridge pickup. • The final control is the Master Tone con

The safety catch is there to prevent the string from accidentally releasing while playing or changing strings. 7 LOADING SPEEDLOADER STRINGS Step 1: To put on the new string simply slide one of the bullets into the nut, then place the other bullet into the appropriate saddle and push down on the back on the saddle until you hear, or feel, a snap. Step 2: This sound is the spring-loaded sliding latch snapping into place. If you don't hear or feel the snap, push the sliding latch toward the saddle

Step 3: Now that the new string has been properly installed you should seat the new string.To seat the new string press down firmly on the string just in front of the saddle and just in front of the nut. Step 4: Then do a couple of stretching pulls on the string. Step 5: The string is now seated and no more stretching is necessary, just play. In fact if you stretch the string too vigorously you will damage the string. Just play the string in for a bit and re-adjust your tuning with the fine-tuni

Step 2: Then, pull back on the sliding latch by placing the first finger of your free hand on the black knob protruding out the back of the saddle then placing your thumb on the fin sticking up just behind the fine tuner screw and pull the latch back with a pinching action between the thumb and first finger. Step 3: Once you have pulled back on the sliding latch, release the saddle and allow it to rotate forward. Step 3: If this part is missing stop right here and get one installed by a qualifie

14 When you do need to change batteries you will get better performance and battery life if you use an alkaline battery.The battery compartment is located on the back of the bass just above the control cavity. It can easily be opened by unscrewing the 2 screws with a Phillips head screwdriver. Changing the battery will not affect your warranty. The controls for both the NJ and Innovator series are as follows: (see photo) • #1 is the Master Volume. It controls the output of both pickups. • #2 is

Changing Strings with a Licensed Floyd Rose Changing strings on a guitar equipped with a locking tremolo may seem tedious at first but with a little practice the process will become second nature. Changing one string at a time will keep the proper tension on the neck and tremolo, which, in turn, will make tuning your guitar back to pitch much easier. 4 SETTING THE FINE TUNER RANGE ON THE SPEEDLOADER TREMOLO Like the Original Floyd Rose, there are several situations that will cause the SpeedLoade

* If the fretted note on the 12th fret is sharper (higher) than the open note, move the saddle back away from the neck. For an accurate reading, be sure to retune the string to pitch after each adjustment of the saddle. Bronze and Platinum guitars require a Phillips head screwdriver for this adjustment. Models with the Licensed Floyd Rose will need the supplied 2.5mm allen wrench. The quality of strings affects intonation as does string gauge. An adjustment of the intonation will most likely hav

The purpose of the Blend Control is to be able to select pickups (bridge or neck) and also to be able to blend them together. Turning the knob counterclockwise will bring more of the neck pickup into the mix. Turning it clockwise will bring more of the bridge pickup into the mix. Setting the Blend Control knob in the middle (there is a middle detent position) will place each pickup evenly in the mix. • #3 is the Bass Boost/Cut Control. It controls the amount of bass (low end) output of the instr

If only one or two of the fine tuners are out of range you may want to try adjusting them without engaging the tremolo stop. Step 1: The first thing you do to reset the range of all the fine tuners is to position all the fine tuner screws to the middle of their possible movement. Step 2: One way to do this is to turn the low "low E" string fine tuner screw all the way up, then turn the "D" string fine tuner screw all the way down. Now, position the "A" string fine tuner screw half way between th
