Setup

1. Charging the Device:

Before first use, fully charge the main pickup unit and the wireless receiver using the provided USB-C cable. The charging indicator will show status (e.g., red for charging, green for full).

2. Installation on Guitar:

The DBG0 Pro is designed for acoustic guitars between 39-42 inches. Please note: It is not suitable for classical guitars. The pickup unit is installed in the sound hole of the guitar.

  1. Carefully position the main pickup unit within the sound hole.
  2. Secure the unit using the provided soft pads or adhesive to prevent movement and protect the guitar's finish. Ensure it is firmly seated but not overly tight.
  3. For wired operation, install the end-pin jack if desired. This may require drilling or reaming the end-pin hole to a larger size. Refer to a professional guitar technician for this step if unsure.
