WIRING DIAGRAMS

Acousti-Phonic with Quickswitch

The standard way of wiring the Acousti-Phonic, same as in the manual with the addition of the optional QuickSwitch for mag/both/acoustic.

Acousti-Phonic Kit

The standard way of wiring the Acousti-Phonic, same as in the manual, with the Acoustic Pot with Mid/Dark Switch and a QuickSwitch (PK-0240-00 or PK-0340-00).

Powering Active Pickups

The standard installation for active pickups like EMG's. Shows how both the Acousti-Phonic and active pickups can run off the same battery source, from 9v ot 18v.

Hexpander First Row

These connections are on the Hexpander's pass-through connector to the Acousti-phonic when they're piggybacked together, so they're the same as the standard installations for the Acousti-phonic.

Hexpander Second Row

The standard connections for the Hexpander pickups, optional switches, and volume pot.

Pin 7 Harness

Connect the Pin 7 harness in Hexpander-only installations so that mag and acoustic are available on the 13-pin connector. Note this requires the addition of an acoustic volume pot, or you can omit the pot and get acoustic out at full volume all the t

Passive Volume Kit

This is how you install the Passive Volume Kit (PE-0400-00) when only using a set of ghost loaded saddles or a ghost loaded bridge without a preamp.

TRS Jack

This operates the Acousti-Phonic in Mono mode only with power switched by the Ring and Sleeve contacts of a standard, stereo, TRS jack. This may be a useful option for guitars that can't use the Stereo Switched Jack, such a those with a deep barrel

Switched Barrel Jack

This is a solution for guitars with deep barrel jacks. The Switchcraft Switchjack has four lugs like the Stereo Switched Jack that comes with the Acousti-Phonic, but the switch works in the opposite way, so it can't be wired the same. This wiring d

Mag Bypass Stereo Jack

The mags go straight to the ring of the Stereo Switched jack, instead of going through the Acousti-Phonic (true bypass). There is no blended (mono) mode available in this configuration. When you insert a stereo 1/4" plug you get mags on the Ring an

Acousti-Phonic with Tone Control

Add a tone pot to the ghost acoustic volume. Note that players sometimes add this thinking they will need it, and never use it because they love the Acousti-phonic sound the way it is. Try the Acousti-phonic first without a tone pot, and add it only

Push Pull as a QuickSwitch

Use the switch in push/pull pot as the QuickSwitch but the push/pull has only 2 positions so you get mag/acoustic instead of mag/both/acoustic.

Mag Bypass Push/Pull - Scheme 1

This bypass switch can be installed if you would like connect your magnetic pickups directly to the output (bypassing the Acousti-Phonic) and simultaneously forcing the board to stop consuming battery power. This can be used in the case that the batt

Mag Bypass Push/Pull - Scheme 2

This bypass switch can be installed if you would like connect your magnetic pickups directly to the output (bypassing the Acousti-Phonic) but will keep the battery connected when in the bypass mode. This will more applicable for live performance. The

Blend Pot

Wire a blend pot to an Acousti-Phonic. It's the same as a regular Acousti-Phonic installation, only the mag pot is reverse-wired to work in the opposite direction. Note that you actually get more control over your sound with separate pots because i

Dual Jack Mag Bypass

Mags go straight out to one 1/4" jack (true bypass) and acoustic goes to another 1/4" jack, the Stereo Switched Jack that comes with the Acousti-Phonic. The Acousti-Phonic is help in mono mode by grounding the ring contact permanently, but the only

Dual Jack Blend

Dual jacks with blended signals are available when a mono plug is inserted in the Stereo Switched Jack only. When a mono 1/4" plug is inserted the second jack (also a Stereo Switched Jack), mag is on the first.
