SH-30 TrueTone Pro Active
Product Information
Product Name: TrueTone SH-30 Pro Active
Intended Use: This product serves as a pick-up
for acoustic string instruments. Any other use or use under other
operating conditions is considered to be improper and may result in
personal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed
for damage resulting from improper use.
Safety Instructions:
- Risk of injury and choking hazard for children!
- Risk of fire due to incorrect polarity – Incorrectly inserted
batteries may destroy the device or the batteries. Ensure that
proper polarity is observed when inserting batteries. - Possible damage by leaking batteries – Leaking batteries can
cause permanent damage to the device. Take batteries out of the
device if it is not going to be used for a longer time period.
Operating Location: Ensure the product is used
in a suitable operating location.
Features:
- [Volume] Control for overall level
- [Mic] Control for microphone signal
- Pick-up cable
- Coupling for connecting the pick-up
- Leather attachment tab
- Batteries
Installation:
- Clean the surface of the instrument in the place where you wish
to attach the pick-up. - Clamp the pick-up into the sound hole of the instrument.
- Connect coupling % of pick-up cable $ to a suitable amp via a
shielded instrument cable and switch on the amp. - You can attach the leather tab & holding the coupling to
the strap pin of your instrument via its hole.
Operation:
- The device uses two separate pick-up systems, one magnetic and
one supported by a microphone. The microphone also transmits the
impact or strumming noises as well as the sound characteristics of
the instrument body, which generates a more authentic sound stage.
Note: If the device is used on instruments with nylon strings, only
the signal recorded by the microphone arrives at the output,
because magnetic pick-ups only work on instruments with metal
strings. - Disconnect the instrument cable from coupling % of the device
when not in use. This prevents the batteries from being drained
unnecessarily. - If the level of the output signal starts to drop over time, the
batteries are empty and must be replaced. Remember the polarity of
the inserted batteries and remove them from the battery holder.
Insert two fresh CR2032 batteries with the same polarity.
Technical Specifications:
- Max. Battery Life: 160 hours

Never allow children to use the device without supervision. Keep small parts away from children and make sure that the device does not shed any small parts (such as knobs) that children could play with.
Risk of fire due to incorrect polarity
Incorrectly inserted batteries may destroy the device or the batteries. Ensure that proper polarity is observed when inserting batteries.
Possible damage by leaking batteries
Leaking batteries can cause permanent damage to the device. Take batteries out of the device if it is not going to be used for a longer time period.
Operating location
Do not ever use this product: · in conditions of extreme temperature or humidity · in extremely dusty or dirty places · in locations where the device may get wet
General handling
· To prevent damage, do not exert force when handling the product. · Do not immerse the product in water. Wipe only with a clean and dry cloth. Do not use
liquid cleaners such as benzene, thinners or flammable cleaning agents · When the device is not in use, disconnect the plug from the chassis coupling of the
device to prevent unnecessary draining of the battery. · Not suitable for guitars with nitro lacquer or shellac. If left on instruments with a poly-
ester finish, the lack of light irradiation at the mounting point can cause light-related discolouration on the instrument.
Features
· Sound hole pick-up for acoustic guitars · Active, noise-free design · Combination of magnetic pick-up and microphone that records the body resonance · Separate volume control for magnet and microphone recordings · Balanced timbre
· High sensitivity · 70 cm cable with 6.35 mm (1/4 inch) coupling · Battery-powered
Operating elements
1. [Volume] Control for overall level 2. [Mic] Control for microphone signal 3. Pick-up cable
4. Coupling for connecting the pick-up 5. Leather attachment tab 6. Batteries
Installation
1. Clean the surface of the instrument in the place where you wish to attach the pick-up. 2. Clamp the pick-up into the sound hole of the instrument. 3. Connect coupling % of pick-up cable $ to a suitable amp via a shielded instrument cable
and switch on the amp. 4. You can attach the leather tab & holding the coupling to the strap pin of your instrument
via its hole.
Operation
1. The device uses two separate pick-up systems, one magnetic and one supported by microphone. The microphone also transmits the impact or strumming noises as well as the sound characteristics of the instrument body, which generates a more authentic sound stage. Note: If the device is used on instruments with nylon strings, only the signal recorded by the microphone arrives at the output, because magnetic pick-ups only work on instruments with metal strings.
2. Use [Volume] ö to set the required overall volume. Use [Mic] # to control the share of the overall signal recorded by the microphone.
3. If you turn up [Volume] ö and [Mic] # to full, this may result in feedback. In this case you should reduce the microphone volume using [Mic] #.
4. Disconnect the instrument cable from coupling % of the device when not in use. This prevents the batteries ‘ from being drained unnecessarily.
5. If the level of the output signal starts to drop over time, the batteries are empty and must be replaced. Remember the polarity of the inserted batteries and remove them from the battery holder. Insert two fresh CR2032 batteries with the same polarity.
