Presys Plus Controls

Volume • For the cleanest signal, set the volume knob as high as possible,

without causing distortion or feedback.

Bass • Boost here to add depth and weight to the sound of the guitar.

Middle • Turn the middle knob all the way left for a smooth “scooped out”

tone at high volume levels. Raise the middle knob to the right of center to add

midrange “bite” to the sound.

Treble • Boost to cut through the mix. Cut to mellow and subdue the sound.

Brilliance • This slider can add shimmer and sparkle to your sound. It zeros in

on crisp high frequency tones, the realm of harmonics and acoustic string sound.

Lower the brilliance slider to reduce ﬁnger noise and fret buzz.

Notch • Tune the notch ﬁlter to remove low-end feedback. Raise the volume

until feedback occurs, then slowly turn the notch to the right until the feedback is

eliminated.

Phase • Use the phase switch to improve bass response at low volume and

suppress feedback at high volume.

Tuner • Use the tuner lights as shown below to tune your instrument.

Battery • When the batt indicator lights steadily it is time to change the bat-

tery. To conserve power, unplug the instrument and turn off the tuner when not

in use. Replace the battery by ﬂipping open the preamp body using the latch

located above the Fishman logo. Be sure to observe the correct polarity during

this installation.
