Installation notes:

The EMG-89 has a variety of ways it can be wired into a guitar. The diagrams in this sheet are limited to the most popular because of the lack of space.

The additon of the plug-on PC Board on the Push-Pull Pot adds further flexibility as you will see in the diagrams. We suggest you look fully at the

installation diagrams included in this sheet along with the B245 Pickup Buss data sheet included in this package before beginning your installation.

The Push-Pull pot allows you 2 options as a volume control as well as 2 other options using the pot as a tone control. If you don’t see a diagram that

fits your instrument directly, or you want to do something completely different, contact our technical department and we’ll create a diagram you can

follow for your installation. Certain limitations apply... When using a selection switch, refer to the included B157 Pickup Buss Instructions.

General Notes: Every attempt has been made to make this a solderless installation. There are some instances where this is not possible; 1) If your instrument uses the long panel output jack and you had passive pickups you will need a new stereo output jack, the Switchcraft 152B is recommended. Soldering to the new jack will be required. 2) Some instruments may already have a battery holder installed, in that case soldering may be required.
