[. . . ] Follow these simple steps and you'll soon be able to change strings as easily as playing your favorite licks. Tools Needed: mm Allen wrench Wire cutters Electronic tuner or pitch pipe Note: Peavey recommends changing one string at a time to maintain proper tension on the neck and tremolo. Replace strings with the same gauges or you will need to make truss rod, spring tension and intonation adjustments as described in this manual. 1 1 DoubleLockingTremolo-ChangingYourStrings First, detune the 6th string (the thickest, top string) using the machine head tuner--two or three turns should remove the tension on the string. Then, using a mm Allen wrench, unlock the corresponding string clamp located at the nut. Then, back on the bridge, reset each Fine Tuner to its middle range. Now, you are ready to remove the 6th string. Using a mm Allen wrench, unclamp the 6th string at the saddle by loosening the saddle lock screws at the rear of the tremolo. Remove string by sliding it out of the nut and unwrapping from the tuning machine head. Note: Broken string pieces can be removed easily with tweezers or a magnetic screwdriver. Using wire cutters, remove the ball end and extra wrapping of the replacement string. (New strings should be free of twists, kinks and bends that can cause sound irregularities or breakage. ) Insert the freshly cut end of the string into the saddle; tighten the saddle lock screws at the rear of the tremolo until snug (View 1). TIP: For easier access to the tremolo screws, and to protect the finish of your guitar, tilt the rear of the tremolo upward using an attached tremolo arm (whammy bar). Do not overtighten the screws or you may permanently damage the saddles or strip the Allen sockets. 16 DoubleLockingTremolo-ChangingYourStrings Thread the other string end under the nut and into the small hole in the corresponding machine head tuning post. Allow two inches of slack for turning around the machine head post (View 2). For the thicker strings (E, A, D), wrap the string end clockwise around post, then run under string at post entry, and pull string tightly over itself, creating a knot. Strings G, B and E should be wound and secured in the same manner (counterclockwise on a three-a-side headstock, as in View 2). To avoid slippage, wind strings tightly from top to bottom on each post, completing 2- wraps around each post. Keep a light pressure View 2: Insert string in machine head. on the string with the fingers of your other hand while tightening the tuners. (An inexpensive, optional peg winder makes winding much easier. ) Tune strings to correct pitch, checking post wraps for smooth winding. String ends can then be bent down and trimmed near the knot. Because new strings are prone to stretch when first installed, you should gently stretch the string by pulling it away from the neck and retune again.

[. . . ] Turning the knob counterclockwise selects more bridge pickup signal, while turning it clockwise sends more neck pickup signal. When engaged, this switch, usually located on a Volume Control or Tone Control, allows one coil from a dual pickup to be turned off, effectively cutting the output in half. Note that as the humbucker is now functioning as a single coil, it will exhibit more hum or noise. 26 2 Accessories Peavey offers a wide range of accessory products to support and enhance your purchase.
