3.1 Kawalan Ke Atasview

  • Tombol Kelantangan: Mengawal jumlah output keseluruhan gitar.
  • Tone Knob (Push-Pull): This knob functions as a standard tone control when pushed down. When pulled up, it activates a secondary voicing for the Fishman Fluence pickups, offering a different tonal characteristic.
  • Suis Pemilih Pickup: A 3-way toggle switch to select between the neck pickup, bridge pickup, or both.

3.2 Fishman Fluence Pickup Voicings

The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups offer two distinct voicings, accessible via the push-pull tone knob:

  • Voice 1 (Active): Engaged when the tone knob is pushed down. This is the modern, high-output active humbucker sound, ideal for heavy genres.
  • Voice 2 (Passive): Engaged when the tone knob is pulled up. This provides a more vintage, passive humbucker tone, offering warmth and clarity.

Experiment with both voicings and the pickup selector to find the sound that best suits your playing style and musical context.

3.3 EverTune Bridge System

The EverTune bridge is a mechanical system that keeps your guitar in perfect tune and intonation across the fretboard. It works by maintaining constant tension on each string. For detailed adjustments and understanding of the EverTune system, please refer to the official EverTune documentation or webtapak.
