Installation of this product is a simple procedure,
but we recommend this job only if you are an
experienced repair technician.
Requirements
Determine whether the top of this bridge is
compatible with the base of the existing bridge on
the instrument. If so, you may place the furnished
bridge top onto the existing base and discard the
furnished base.
Installation
Observe the following
precaution!
• Handle the pickup carefully! Please pay
close attention to the dimensional require-
ments for installation. Failure to do so can
result in permanent damage to the pickup.
Installing the pickup
1. If using the furnished base, fit the bridge to the
instrument using your preferred method.
2. When profiling and notching the top of the bridge,
you may safely remove up to .125” of wood without
damaging the sensing element (figure 1).
Jack installation
For M-100: Remove the screw at the bottom of the
tailpiece (figure 2) and replace with the supplied
screw, washer and jack/clamp assembly. Fasten the
assembly securely (figure 3).
For M-200: After fitting the pickup to the
mandolin, locate the jack to the right of the bridge
(figure 4) and tighten it with the enclosed chinrest
key (figure 5). Be careful not to scratch the side of
your mandolin.
