****Tips and Tricks****

Start your installation by:

1) Remove the strings

2) Remove any existing Pickups and controls

(remember the order and function of each control)

3) Determine a good spot for the Pickup Buss and make sure the

cable or wires from the selection switch will reach the Pickup Buss,

4) Install the EMG Volume and Tone Controls and tighten them in.

5) Then install the pickups keeping any excess cable under the pickup

rather than in the control cavity.

Soldering to the 152B Panel Jack:

If your instrument has a long Panel Jack like the one below

you will have to solder the output cable as shown.

Ground (Black) to the Sleeve

Signal (White) to the Tip

Battery Negative (Black) to the Ring

1) Install the Pickups and route the Pickup cables to the control cavity.

If the cables are too long, wind up the excess and keep it under the pickup.

2) Mount the Volume and Tone controls into the body.

Plug both Pickup cables onto the Pickup Buss (BLACK Shroud) as shown,

Refer to Diagram #6a

Bridge Pickup to Position 1

Neck Pickup to Position 2.

3) Plug a coax cable from the Pickup Buss (Position 3) to the Master Volume

control as shown in Diagram #6b.

4) Plug a coax cable from the Master Volume to the Master Tone as shown.

5) Strip the insulation from the switch wires and Insert them into the GREEN

Terminal Block and tighten the screws with a small screwdriver.

The Bridge pickup goes to the BR Terminal

The Neck pickup goes to the NK Terminal

The Output of the switch goes to the O Terminal

If there is a ground wire coming from the switch, insert it into one of the black

terminals on the terminal block.

6) Plug the output cable onto the Master Tone control and connect the output

wires to the output jack by pushing the connectors on as shown.

WHITE wire onto the TIP (T) contact,

BLACK wire onto the SLEEVE (S) contact

We suggest that you plug in the instrument and test it before closing the

control cavity.

Installation (Two Pickup Guitars with Selection switch):

Guitars with two pickups and a selection switch will use the EMG B245 Pickup Buss.

The Pickup Buss is a convenient way to wire your guitar without soldering.

There is a separate sheet attached to these instructions that describes the

Pickup Buss in detail. Since you are installing passive EMG-HZ Pickups the RED

Shroud of the B245 Pickups Buss will not be used. It is for battery power.
