Once the wheels are mounted and the bass is tuned up, thread the white wire through one of the wing holes in the bridge and hold it in place with one of the neoprene plugs from the kit. (Illustration B) Fasten the output jack behind the bridge and between two adjacent pairs of strings. Then fasten the RCA plug into the back of the output jack. Open, resonant response. Mind the Gap! For good pickup performance, leave a slight gap between the threaded side of the wheel and the wood. If you close the gap, the amplified sound will become choked and muted.

Illustration B Illustration C Full Circle Upright Bass Pickup Fit the Full Circle to a Bridge Without Wheels Warning!Only a professional repair-person should attempt this installation. If you have not installed wheels before, please practice on a scrap bridge. Fishman will not be responsible for damages due to improper installation. Preliminary NOTE: In this method we describe how to center the wheels precisely within the taper of the bridge. We like the way the pickup performs when it is exactly centered in the leg. 2. Find the center of line B on the face of each leg. From these points make perpendicular lines down to the foot ("D"). Turn the bridge sideways make a vertical line, centered through the taper of the bridge (line F). Go back to line B and continue it across the thickness of the bridge, perpendicular to line F (both legs). Finally, center a line (G) across the bottom length of each foot. Setup Once the wheels are mounted and the bass is tuned up, thread the white wire through one of the wing holes in the bridge and hold it in place with one of the neoprene plugs from the kit. [. . . ] Double sided carpet tape makes an excellent temporary clamp while you cut. After you cut off the feet, enlarge the holes in the legs to 1/4" (6. 4mm) diameter. 3/8" (9. 5 mm) B No Less Than 1 - 1/4" (31. 75 mm) Line B Line F Line A Line C Line D C D A D Threads into Feet B E Line D G Line E Threads Down Illustration D Threads Up Option 2: Threads up (into legs) Start a hole in one foot with a single flute countersink. Then use a #9 (5 mm) tap drill to plunge the hole in one leg to a depth of at least 2" (50. 8 mm). With the bridge still held in position from the first hole, enlarge it to 1/4" (6. 4mm) diameter, to a depth of 1" (25. 4mm). [. . . ]
