Installation Instructions:
EMG Models: EMG-GTV
General Notes:
Every attempt has been made to make this a solderless installation.
There are some instances where this is not possible;
1) If your instrument uses the long panel output jack and you had passive pickups
you will need a new stereo output jack, the Switchcraft 152B is recommended.
Soldering to the new jack will be required, see diagram #6.
2) Some instruments may already have a battery holder installed and in that case
see the diagram at the bottom of page 3.
3) Instruments with two pickups may need soldering to the selection
switch in some installations.
Installation (Two Pickup Guitars with Selection switch):
Guitars with two pickups and a selection switch will use the EMG B245 Pickup Buss as shown in diagram #2.
The Pickup Buss is a convenient way to wire your guitar without soldering.
There is a separate sheet attached to these instructions that describes the B245
Pickup Buss in detail.
In all installations it’s best to find a place to mount the Pickup Buss in the control cavity before starting. Then, after the cables are routed use the velcro to mount it securely.
Diagram #1
Insert the plug onto the 3 pin header of the pickup as shown above.
Note the orientation arrow.
2 Pickups / Toggle Select Switch / Master Volume and Tone
Refer to Diagrams #1, #2, and #3
1) Install the Pickups and and route the Pickup cables to the control cavity.
If the cables are too long, wind up the excess and keep it under the pickup.
2) Mount the Volume and Tone controls into the body.
Plug both Pickup cables onto the B245 Pickup Buss (BLACK Shroud) as shown,
Refer to diagram #2
Bridge Pickup to position 1
Neck Pickup to position 2.
3) Plug a coax cable from the Pickup Buss (position 3) to the Master Volume
control as shown in diagram #3.
4) Plug a coax cable from the Master Volume to the Master Tone as shown.
5) Strip the insulation from the switch wires and Insert them into the GREEN
Terminal Block and tighten the screws with a small screwdriver.
The Bridge pickup goes to the BR Terminal
The Neck pickup goes to the NK Terminal
The Output of the switch goes to the O Terminal
If there is a ground wire coming from the switch, insert it into one of the black
terminals on the terminal block.
6) Plug the output cable onto the Master Tone control and connect the output
wires to the output jack by pushing the connectors on as shown.
WHITE wire onto the TIP (T) contact,
BLACK wire onto the SLEEVE (S) contact
BLACK Battery Negative wire onto the RING (R) contact.

TO SELECTION SWITCH
7) Plug the RED Wires of the pickups onto the V+ Buss (RED Shroud)
along with the RED of the battery clip.
Extra pins on the V+ Buss are for EMG Accessories.
8) Put the battery in the insulating foam piece provided and place it securely in the
control cavity.
We suggest that you plug in the instrument and test it before closing the
control cavity.

If the instrument has a Battery Holder:
If your instrument has a 9 or 18 Volt battery holder you can still use the EMG Connectors to supply power to the pickups.
Simply cut and strip the wires from the battery clip provided.
Twist the wires together and use the shrink tubing included to cover the connections. Soldering the wires is the preferred.
Cover these connections with the shrink tubing provided.
