8EFORE USING THIS INSTRUMENT, READ BACK COVER FOR FURTHER WARNINGS Neck: The select rock maple neck is of a unique bi-laminated construction (U.S. Patent #4,237,944) to provide unmatched rigidity and freedom from warpage. Additional reinforcement is provided with a steel torsion rod. This neck adjusting rod features rolled threads for improved strength and freedom from breakage. (See Adjustment - Torsion Rod for instructions.) The full 34" scale length features 21 18% nickel-silver frets which are medium height, highly crowned, and polished. The arch of the fingerboard is on an 8" radius to provide exceptional playing ease and string distance/balance characteristics. The neck of the instrument also employs four ultra-precrsion machine heads (24:1 ratio), a die-cast “string-tree” and a durable Graphlon™ top-nut. The neck is secured to the body with four screws for maximum stability through a solid steel neck plate which features our neck-tilt adjustment. (See Adjustments - Neck Tilt for instructions.) Body: The body of the instrument is constructed from the finest maple (gloss finish) and southern ash (satin finish) with deep, double cutaways for easy access to the highest fret. A special forearm and rib cage relief contour allows weight reduction, proper balance, and maximum playing ease. The instrument (satin and gloss finish) features our polyester/urethane finish which is mar and weather resistant. Pickup: The instrument’s single-coil high output pickup with blade pole piece provides high power and full range operation. The pickup has been "harmonically” placed at a precise point on the body/pickguard allowing greater response from the fundamentals and overtones to be obtained from each string. The pickup is mounted to the pickguard with an integral mounting ring/thumb rest combination (patent applied for) to maximize right-hand playing angle and comfort. Circuitry: The circuitry of the instrument is conventional, with the exception of the tone-compensating volume control, which minimizes high frequency losses when operated at reduced volume levels. However, full volumesettingswill maximize the tonal capabilities. The volume level should therefore be controlled at the amplifier whenever possible. Bridge: The bridge of the instrument is constructed from triple chrome plated 13 gauge steel and is securely bolted to the body at five points. The four “barrel-type” string saddles are made from heavy duty 1/2" steel for maximum sustain and string stability and are fully adjustable for string height, tilt, and intonation/compensation. (See Adjustments - Height and Intonation for instructions.) Controls: 1. Volume control. The volume control acts as a master volume in that it controls the total signal level delivered from the pickup to the output jack. Rotating the control knob clockwise will increase volume; rotating counterclockwise will reduce volume. 2. Tone control. The tone control, like the volume control, operates as a master control. Rotating clockwise will result in more treble (high frequencies) and a brighter tonality. Rotating counterclockwise will result in less treble and a “bassier-type” sound. 3. Output jack. The output jack is a genuine Switchcraft 1/4" phone jack which accepts standard guitar patch cords. (We recommend high quality “shielded” patch cords.) 4. Pickup. The volume level of the pickup can be adjusted by raising or lowering the pickup with its height adjustment screws. Raising the pickup closer to the strings will increase the output and volume. Lowering the pickup away from the strings will decrease output and volume. NOTE CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE PICKUP AND THE STRINGS. INADEQUATE CLEARANCE CAN RESULT IN POSSIBLE LOSS OF SUSTAIN AND POSSIBLE STRING BUZZING WHEN PLAYING ON THE UPPER FRETS. 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 at sometime in the future. 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 yoursejf. CAUTION: PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ADJUSTMENTS! Adjusting Torsion Rod To set the “straightness” or “relief” of the neck, a Peavey torsion rod wrench No. 75031001 must be used (available from a Peavey Accessory Center). 1. Tune the instrument to standard (A-440) pitch. 2. Check for clearance between the strings (1 through 4) and the first fret. IMPORTANT: Use an accurate ruler or similar gauge for this measurement. 3. This clearance should be no less than 1/32" and no more than 1/16" at the first fret. 4. Check for clearance between the strings and the twelfth fret. 5. This clearance should be no less than 1/16” and no more than 1/4" at the twelfth fret. 6. To incre...
