About the Output Jack

The iP-2 is turned on when a guitar cord is plugged in

and turned off when it is unplugged, saving the battery.

Tip:

Pickup and Preamp Out

Ring: 2nd Source Out

Shield: Ground

The 2nd source is hard wired

from the Tip of the Access Jack

to the Ring on the Output Jack.

The iP-2 does not include a 2nd

preamplifier for the 2nd source.

Output Jack

This innovative screw thread is designed

to stay in place regardless of variations in

the end block as it expands and contracts

due to humidity and temperature changes.

By eliminating the typical machine thread

and nut, our preamp will never come loose

and require the awkward task of tightening

a nut at the end pin block inside the guitar.

The elegant strap button holds the strap

securely and will never untwist or loosen.

About the Access Jack

The Access Jack (AJ) is a 3.5mm Stereo Female Jack that enables a

2nd Source to be used with the iP-2 including a magnetic sound hole

pickup or an electret microphone such as our 'Internal Mic' . Power for

active pickups or electret microphones is provided on the ring of the AJ.

The power at the AJ is 'on' only when the guitar is plugged in.

Both signals are available separately at the output Jack, enabling both

sources to be connected to separate sound systems or amplifiers.

Both signals can be combined using a good quality mixer such as our

'Pro Acoustic Mix DI'.

Always Use a Stereo Male to connect to the Access Jack.

When connecting a mono source, the stereo plug must still be used

with the ring left unconnected.

Never use a Mono Male to connect to the Access Jack.

+9 Volt power on the ring will be shorted out causing the battery

to seriously overheat.

If this inadvertenlty happens during installation, the battery has been

compromised and must be changed.

A High Quality 3.5mm Stereo Male is provided with every iP-2.
