15). Example 2) Mounting Over the Bridge If there is insufficient space to install the controller on the bass top, you can use this method to mount the controller over the bridge (p. 16). Example 3) Mounting on the Back of the Bass If there is insufficient space to install the controller on the bass top, you can use this method to mount the controller to the back of the bass (p. 17). 14 Attaching the GK-3B to the Bass Mounting on the Front of the Bass 1. Remove three screws from the 3. Tighten holders “A” and “B” using the underside of the controller, then attach screw (5 x 20 mm), the GK-3B to holder “A.” * Holder A has six screw holes. Refer to the figure to ensure the holder is attached correctly. 2. Attach holder “B” so that the bass body is sandwiched between the two holders. * Make sure that Holder A is firmly pressed against the side surface of the bass body. 15 Attaching the GK-3B to the Bass Mounting Over the Bridge 1. Attach holders “A” and “B” so that the bass body is sandwiched between the two holders. * Holder A attaches to the back surface of the bass. * Make sure that Holder A is firmly pressed against the side surface of the bass body. underside of the controller, then attach the GK-3B to holder “C.” 3. Secure Holder “C,” with the controller attached to it, to Holder “B” using the flat washers, spring washers and screw (5 mm x 8 mm). * If Holder “C" makes contact with the strings and interferes ivith performance, attach the controller cushion to Holder "C" so as to lift Holder "C" away from the instrument and prevent it from reaching the strings. * First, insert the controller cushion between the bass and the holder, and determine a position that ensures that none of the string vibration will be disturbed. Then, affix the cushion. 16 Attaching the GK-3B to the Bass Mounting on the Back of the Bass 1. Remove three screws from the 3. Tighten holders “A” and “B” using the underside of the controller, then attach screw (5 x 20 mm), the GK-3B to holder “A.” * Holder A has six screw holes. Refer to the figure to ensure the holder is attached correctly. 2. Attach holder “B” so that the bass body is sandwiched between the two holders. * Make sure that Holder A is firmly pressed against the side surface of the bass body. 17 Attaching the GK-3B to the Bass ■ Attaching with Double-sided Tape and a Screw 1. Place the controller in an appropriate position on the bass surface to determine where it is to be attached. Pay attention to the following points at this time. • Install on a level surface. • Position the controller so it does not interfere with your playing. • Position the controller so you can comfortably operate the select switch, the SI and S2 switches, and other controls. • Position the controller so that it does not place undue strain on the normal pickup input jack, divided pickup, or GK cable. • Make sure that the plugs connected to the GK connector and normal pickup input jack do not stick out, as this may result in damage should undue strain be placed on the GK connector or normal pickup input jack. 2. Once the controller position has been determined, place the controller in position and carefully drill a pilot hole in the bass body where the controller’s attachment hole is located. • The diameter of the hole should be about 2 mm (0.08"). • Confirm that there are no other problems in attaching the controller before drilling the pilot hole. 3. After attaching the double-sided tape “A” to the underside of the Controller, attach the controller to the bass. 4. Secure the controller with the supplied flat-head screw (3x16 mm). Put the flat-head screw (3x16 mm) through this hole. * If you'd rather not drill a hole in your bass, you can secure the Controller using only the double-sided tape or the holders. However, if only the doublesided tape is used to secure the unit, shocks from rough handling during performances and from use over an extended period will cause the tape to deteriorate, with the GK-3B shifting out of position as a result. Furthermore, if the finish on your bass is less than perfect, you may discover that the finish is also removed when you later remove the tape. 18 How to Connect the GK-3B * To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections. * When all devices are properly connected, turn on the poiver to the various devices in the order specified below. Turning on devices in the wrong order may result in malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices. 1. Make sure that the power to the device being connected is turned off, then connect the device to the GK-3B’s GK connector using the GK cable. GK device Connect the GK-3B only with dedicated GK cable (supplied with Roland GK-compatible devices and optional GK cables sold by Roland). Use of any other cable m§y result in damage or malfunction. The GK cab...
