About External Power
As with any piezo pickup, it is important to have the preamplifier mounted as
close to the pickup as possible. This minimizes the length of cable between the
pickup and the preamp, greatly enhancing the sound quality.
The preamp requires a 9V battery. While Highlander systems can run for 1000
hours on one 9V battery, this battery will have to be replaced from time to time. In
an acoustic flat top guitar this is easily accomplished through the sound hole;
however, it is not so easy to access the inside of a resonator guitar. That is why
the External Power Accessory is highly recommended by Highlander and the
National Reso-Phonic Guitar Company. The cover plate on these guitars was not
designed to be removed and replaced regularly. Apart from the hassle, there is a
possibility that over time this could cause problems. The External Power Option
is easy to use, eliminating the hassle and potential problems.

Using the wrong techniques or tools could result in permanent damage to your Instrument.
Highlander is not responsible for any damage resulting from the installation of this pickup system.
Power is delivered to the guitar on the
'ring' of a stereo cable. If a mono cable is
inadvertently plugged into the guitar jack
on the External Power Box, the battery
will be shorted out. This will cause the
battery to run down very quickly, and
there is also the possibility that the
battery could get quite warm. If this
happens the battery should be replaced.
Please note the External Power Box is
used to power the preamp that is in the
guitar -- there is no preamplifier in the
External Power Box.
