Instructions

Follow our installation guide through the following steps:

Assemble the pickup clamp by placing the rear clamp piece behind the pickup sensor and connecting the two parts with the provided mounting screws. Leave enough space between the two parts so the assembled pickup can slide onto the side of the sitar bridge without pressure.

Position the pickup on the side of the bridge. Keep the wooden sensor seated evenly against the bridge surface before tightening.

Gently tighten the screws with the included key until the pickup holds securely in place. Check that the pickup remains straight and properly positioned on the bridge.

As you tighten the pickup, check the sound often. The pickup should be secure, but not overtightened, as too much pressure may restrict vibration and affect the tone.

With your volume off, connect the 1/8" to 1/4" cable to the pickup. Hold the pickup securely when attaching and detaching the cable.

You are ready to enjoy your new pickup!
