User manual FISHMAN VMV POWERBRIDGE ROUTING TEMPLATE

[. . . ] The pickup is terminated with a SwitchcraftTM 1/8" jack that mounts to the tailpiece. Its low mass minimizes any damping or muting that could affect the instrument's acoustic tone. The V100 provides a natural, acoustic sound for arco or pizz playing styles. The FISHMAN V-100 VIOLIN / VIOLA PICKUP is warranted to function for a period of One (1) Year from the date of purchase. [. . . ] If the unit fails to function properly within the warranty period, free repair and the option of replacement or refund in the event that FISHMAN is unable to make repair are FISHMAN's only obligations. This warranty does not cover any consequential damages or damage to the unit due to misuse, accident, or neglect. FISHMAN retains the right to make such determination on the basis of factory inspection. Products returned to FISHMAN for repair or replacement must be shipped in accordance with the Return Policy, as follows. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which may vary from state to state. Return Policy To return products to FISHMAN TRANSDUCERS, you must follow these steps. . . Call FISHMAN TRANSDUCERS at 978-988-9199 for a Return Authorization Number ("RAN"). Enclose a copy of the original Bill of Sale as evidence of the date of purchase, with the product in its original packaging and a protective carton or mailer. FISHMAN TRANSDUCERS' technicians will determine whether the item is covered by warranty or if it instead has been damaged by improper customer installation or other causes not related to defects in material or workmanship. Measure the opening of the wing slot on the bridge with a vernier caliper. The opening should be between . 060-. 090" (1. 5-2. 3mm) for proper fit. If the wing slot measures less than . 060" (1. 5 mm), employ a qualified repairman to enlarge the wing slot. FIG. 1 FINE TUNING Once the V-100 is properly mounted, plug the instrument into an amplifier and play at a low volume. Carefully shift the position of the pickup and listen for the best location. NOTE: If installation is to be permanent, a small drop of adhesive on the side (lower face) of the transducer can be used. If the wing slot measures more than . 090 inch (2. 3 mm) as is the case in violas, a small wooden shim may be required. If so, use an adhesive to bond the shim to the "leg" face. PLUGGING IN Due to the nature of passive pickups, the type of cable you use and the input you plug into will affect the quality of your sound. Instrument Cable Cable lengths over 10 feet (before preamp) will cause audible high frequency loss. [. . . ] If so, use an adhesive to bond the shim to the "leg" face.

Kinds of Audio Inputs Because of the lack of standardization for high impedance audio inputs, special attention should be paid to what you are plugging into: The V-200 Professional will sound best when plugged directly into an input with a 10 M impedance; the full frequency response of the instrument is reproduced.
