Thank you for purchasing a Yamaha electric guitar. In order to obtain maximum performance and enjoyment from this instrument, we urge you to read this Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the instrument. After read, we recommend that you keep it in a convenient place for future reference.
PRECAUTIONS - Do not dispose of batteries in fire. - Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not designed to be charged. - Keep the batteries separate from metallic objects such as necklaces, hairpins, coins, and keys. - Use the specified battery type only. - Use new batteries, all of which are the same type, same model, and made by the same manufacturer. - Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/polarity markings.
Connections CAUTION • Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum. • To prevent the possibility of electrical shock or fire, we recommend using great caution when using this instrument in high humidity or wet weather environments. We also recommend that you read all Owner’s Manuals for the external equipment that you connect this musical instrument to.
• To avoid injury when cleaning this instrument, beware of sharp string ends. • When using a strap, make sure the strap is securely attached to the guitar. • Do not lift the guitar by strap. It can cause serious injury or damage to the guitar. • Do not treat the instrument in a rough manner such as swinging it about, etc. The strap on the guitar may detach causing unexpected accidents such as the instrument dropping, etc., or injuring persons close by.
Be Careful When Handling and Other Cautions Correct Use and Handling of Batteries • The guitar has been properly adjusted before being shipped from the factory. In the event adjustment is necessary, contact the dealer from whom you purchased the instrument, if possible, as special skills may be required. For those adjustments that can be performed by the owner, please closely follow the instructions given in the Owner’s Manual for the procedure.
TUNING MACHINE TENSION ADJUSTMENT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE LOCKING NUT (If applicable) The tuning machines have spring-loaded mechanisms which automatically take up wear, preventing backlash. However, it is possible to adjust the amount of pressure required to turn the machines. Each machine has a tension adjustment screw, as illustrated. 1) Remove the three hexagonal screws (A) that fix the Lock Pads. 2) Loosen the four screws (B) that attach the Nut Base to the neck.
SETTING THE STRING ACTION — Bridge — Height adjustment screws (for each strings) NOTE: Be sure to perform any necessary adjustments to the truss rod before performing the following adjustments. String height refers to the space between the strings and frets, and has an affect on playability. String height is adjusted with the bridge and/or the saddle on the bridge. Adjust height by alternately turning the screws little by little on the left and right sides. Set too high and the instrument is hard to play.
VIBRATO SYSTEM Vintage Type Following is the procedure for adjusting the vintage vibrato system: To check intonation, compare the harmonic tone (12th fret) to the fretted tone (12th fret). ● If fretted pitch is higher than harmonic, saddle must be moved backward to lengthen string. Turn clockwise Bridge saddle When Higher than harmonic Adjustment screw ● If fretted pitch is lower than harmonic, saddle must be moved forward to lengthen string.
VIBRATO SYSTEM Locking Type When changing strings it is necessary to cut off the ball ends of the strings. Following is the procedure for changing strings and adjusting the vibrato system: Intonation Adjustment in Vibrato Bridge 1) Loosen the three clamp screws (A). 2) Slide the saddles by hand to adjust the length of each string. 1) After loosening/detuning the strings you would like to adjust. Loosen the hexagonal screw (D) located in the front of each saddle using the supplied hexagonal wrench.
VIBRATO SYSTEM Locking Type Tighten C Lower Loosen Loosen Higher D When Lower than harmonic Tighten When Higher than harmonic Tighten B A Loosen 11 02_EG_om_en_0126.
BRIDGE/SPRING TENSION ADJUSTMENTS For best results the bridge should always be adjusted so it is parallel to the top surface of the guitar as shown in illustration (below). This position is maintained by opposing tension between the strings and the claw springs. If you change string gauge, you will need to readjust the spring tension to return the bridge back to the parallel position.
TRUSS ROD ADJUSTMENT PICKUP HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT The curvature of the neck should be slightly concave. Clockwise rotation of the nut tightens the rod and corrects for too much concave bow. Counterclockwise rotation of the nut loosens the rod and corrects for too much convex bend. Make any adjustments gradually. Allow five to ten minutes for setting, and check the curvature after each 1/2 turn of the truss rod nut. The height of the pickup (i.e.
