Rotating the "high" control (small center knob) counterclockwise will decrease (roll off) all frequencies 255 Hz and above. Rotating this knob clockwise will increase (pass) all frequencies 255 Hz and above. Rotating the "low" control (large outside knob) counterclockwise rolls off all frequencies 96 Hz and below. Rotating this knob clockwise passes all frequencies 96 Hz and below. This translates into an audible cut/boost of 12 decibels. Blend Control The blend control provides a wider variety of sounds than available from conventional pickup selector switches. It may be varied from the neck pickup (clockwise), the center detent (both pickups), the bridge pickup (counterclockwise), or any blend in between. Adjustments Your instrument has been carefully adjusted for accurate intonation and playing ease at the Peavey factory. However, your playing style or playing requirements may necessitate additional adjustments. These adjustments should be made by your Peavey dealer; however, with a little care and by adhering closely to the following instructions, you may attempt these adjustments yourself. Please read the instructions thoroughly before attempting any adjustments. Torsion Rod To set the "straightness" or "relief" of the neck, a 5/32" alien wrench must be used (supplied). 1. Tune the instrument to standard (A-440) pitch. 2. Check for clearance between the strings (1-4) and the first fret. Important: Use an accurate ruler or similar gauge for this measurement. 3. This clearance should be no less than V32" and no more than V|6* at the first fret. 4. Check for clearance between the strings and the 12"' fret. 5. This clearance should be no less than 1 ,fo" and no more than V4" at the 12"' fret. 6. To increase clearance, loosen (counterclockwise) the torsion-rod nut. Less clearance (straightening of the neck) is accomplished by tightening (clockwise) the nut. The torsion-rod nut is located under the plastic cover plate on the headstock. Caution: It is not usually necessary to rotate the torsion rod nut more than one full turn In either direction. 1/4 to 1/2 turn is usually sufficient. Excessive rotation may cause damage to the neck and torsion rod. If excessive force is necessary to rotate the torsion rod nut, you should consult your Peavey dealer or the factory before any further adjustment is made. 7. Repeat steps 1-6 until proper clearance has been achieved. Pickups The sensitivity level of the magnetic pickups can be adjusted by raising or lowering each pickup with its height-adjusting screws. Raising the pickups closer to the strings will increase the output and sensitivity. Lowering the pickups away from the strings will decrease output and sensitivity. When making these adjustments, be sure to maintain adequate clearance between the pickups and strings. Improper adjustment could result in loss of sustain and possible string buzzing when playing on the upper frets. Both pickups have four height-adjustment screws. How you adjust the height of your pickups will greatly affect your tone and output levels. Experiment with different combinations until you get the sound you want. You'll be surprised at how much tonal variance can be achieved with a simple pickup adjustment. String Intonation 9 Note Accurate string intonation settings ensure that your instrument will play in tune at any point on the neck. Although "perfect intonation" is a physical impossibility with a fretted instrument, the proper adjustments will maximize the accuracy of individual notes up and down the neck. Intonation is set by comparing the pitch of an open string to the pitch of the same string when played one octave higher at the 12th fret. The actual "vibrating length" of that string is varied until the notes are both at the right pitch. The "vibrating length" of the string is altered by adjusting the individual saddles either forward or backward, depending on whether the fretted note is sharper or flatter in pitch than the open note. This process should always be performed with new strings. Intonation problems are often the result of worn strings. It is often difficult for the untrained ear to determine when the open note and the fretted note are at precisely the same pitch. Some players find that comparing the 12th fret harmonic of the string (rather than the open note) to the fretted note is much easier. A harmonic is played by plucking the string with the right hand while touching the string with the left index finger (as lightly as possible) directly above the 12th fret. The left index finger is drawn away as quickly as possible after the string is plucked, producing a “chime” effect. This chimed note Is then compared to the fretted note. For greater ease and accuracy, we recommend one of the many types of electronic guitar tuners that are available from most music stores. 1. Tune the instrument to standard (A-440) pitch. 2. Hold the instrument in a normal playing position or place it on a clean, flat s...
