[. . . ] Separate volume controls on the guitar make it easy to mix the two signals. The second ¼" jack carries the signal from the magnetic pickups on its own. When a cable is plugged into the magnetic pickup jack the magnetic pickup signal is removed from the mix output so that there is now a separate signal for each of the pickup systems. Output #2 Output #1 Fig. 1 One Cable in the Mix/Acoustic Output Jack When using just one cable the signals from both pickup systems are fed through the Mix/Acoustic output jack. The blend knob allows you control the amount of magnetic vs. acoustic bridge transducer sound that is heard through your amplifier. In the center position an equal amount of magnetics and bridge transducers are output. Turning the knob clock-wise will increase the amount of bridge transducer heard in the mix. Turning the knob counter clock-wise will increase the amount of magnetic sound heard in the mix. Using Two Cables As mentioned above in "Flexible Outputs" when two cables are inserted into the output jacks the signals are completely separated and the blend knob becomes a volume control for the bridge transducers. This feature allows you to set up the bridge transducer volume and EQ settings on the pre amp and then control the output using only the Blend/Acoustic knob. We highly recommend running the acoustic transducer output jack to a volume pedal before going to the PA or acoustic amp. You can then keep the guitar's acoustic transducer volume on at all times and control the output with the volume pedal. Another option is to use the acoustic tone along with the regular magnetic pickups to create one huge tone.
