MODULES FOR THE MODULATOR GUITAR
MODULE 1
Single volume and tone selector switch for the jazz guitarist or for the player who does not wish to be inconvenienced by too many controls while performing on stage.

MODULE 2. Phasing
Single volume, tone and 2 selector switches. 1 Pickup selector giving one or other pickups or both on together. Additional 2 position switch which reverses the polarity of one pickup so that when 2 pickups are used together with the switch in the out position, the fundamentals of the notes are cancelled, giving the effect of high treble square wave rotation. Designed particularly for the rock guitarist.

MODULE 3
Volume and tone control for each individual pickup - 2 selector switches. This technique enables very subtle mixtures of tone and output. Also provided with rhythm and solo switch with a double purpose of bypassing the passive controls. Passive controls suppress the harmonics of pickups, so when bypassed the harmonics and output are increased at a tremendous degree.

MODULE 4. Stereo
Volume and tone for each pickup 2 selector switches. The pickups are channelled to two separate outputs via a stereo jack socket. By using a stereo lead you have two separate outputs to two amplifiers enabling different effects on either channel. Also a bypass switch so that the pickup output goes direct to the amplifier.

MODULE 5. Recording
Volume and tone for each pickup - 3 selector switches. The top switch selects 1, 2 or both pickups. The second switch selects single coil, out of phase and normal humbucking pickups in the fingerboard position. The third switch selects single coil, out of phase and normal humbucker in the bridge position. This module was developed for the guitarist who wishes to customise his guitar by fitting either humbucking or superflux pickups in different positions. Just by plugging in the module it will give any combination of pickups you desire, thus extending the natural tone Distributed in range to a far greater degree.
