Connecting Your Fretlight 5 Guitar
Locate the Fretlight USB Cable included with your Fretlight 5 guitar. Connect one end of
the cable to your Fretlight 5 guitar, then connect the other end of the cable to the USB
port on your computer. The third connector (1/4” jack on the USB side of the cable) is for
the optional Fretlight dual footswitch.

DON’T use a 2-prong plug or a 3-to-2 adapter plug.

DON’TDON’T
DON’T use an external USB hub. The Fretlight 5 MUST be connected directly to
the root hub of your computer.
Try not to use power strips or extension cords as this WILL introduce extra noise
into the system.
Make sure that you’re using a shielded guitar cable. Cable quality can make a
significant difference in extraneous noise introduced into the system.
We recommend using a name brand, good quality cable.
