![]() ![]() I know that doesnt answer the in depth stuff but it shows that what you want is possible. i had a phaez that was two amps in one so i would only be running one amp and the switch would be a channel switcher. mags would be one amp, piezo another, both would have both amps. i was going to do a Y stereo cable so that i can flick a switch while playing and the signal would be switched and with the Y end plugged into two amps it would go to where it needed. a one jack solution is a stereo cable where a switch controls whats on at that time. ![]() one set for the mag pups and the other set for the piezos the only difference instead of having a pull push somewhere i was going to have a 3 position switch for switching (mag only/both/piezo only) I was going to have mine done on an lp with the usual knobs 2 tone 2 vol. do note a hole is usually put int he guitar top under the bridge so the wires can go through them. ![]() I was going to go this one my custom guitar but cost has me cutting back all but the essentials and right now its not essential and can be added easily later. Giant pain in the ass to ge the plug out whthout contorting yourself and using two hands the diffence is that it is a Neutrik locking jack its no different that a regular stereo jack save that it has the locking mechanism. you could run a tiny one and mount it on the side o the main jack plate if you are only planning on using the second one for recording and not jumping around on a stage!!Īs to the TRS jack on the slash. you need two jacks.īUT, as DUDU pointed out. when only the bottom plug is in, you can mix both into that output, when you plug the second chord in, the signal is split and then the neck tone acts as the volume for the acoustic signal rather than blending it into the mag signal.įreakin awesome. The 9 pin jack has some circuitry across the pins (resistors and caps and shunts) that fishman provided me with that makes the guitar split the signal when you plug in the second jack. i put it on a surface plate rather than an electro socket so that on stage he could feel the difference between the two jacks So basically, you have the 9 pin jack that came with the system and a second, regular jack that only transmits the piezo signal you can see it in the picture. The guy wanted one jack specifically for the acoustic signal and one jack that he could mix both into.ĭuring certain songs, he plugs the second jack into an acoustic amp and the sound is amazing I convinced this guy to install the power chip. You COULD do on a push pull switch for one or the other. then yeah, you will need to use a dual (up/down) stack tone control and wire the one as the blender. If you REALLY REALLY use your neck tone control. the proble here is that there is a large drop in output level from mag to piezo. you wire a set of capacitors and resistors onto a regular pot. With the passive setup, you still lose the tone control. The battery can fit in the control cavity no problem With a stereo Y cable, you cal split the signal so that mag goes to your amp and piezo gos to an acoustic amp With a normal jack plugged in, you can then blend acoustic sound into the mag pickup signal, or go all acoustic by turning the mag pickups off. You then attach your mag out and the powerbridge to the power chip. You replace the jack with a stereo jack.(supplied with the chip) You make a small notch in the bottom right of the bridge pickup ring for the wire to route under. You remove the tone control for the neck and replace it with the Power Chip. ![]()
