The Fretlight Guitar Neck
The Fretlight Neck & System
Your Fretlight guitar has what looks like a MIDI jack mounted in the
body. This is NOT a 5-pin MIDI jack. This is an 8-pin DIN plug.
Please do not try to plug a MIDI cable or MIDI plug into this jack
or try to send any MIDI information to your Fretlight neck.
Doing so will result in severe damage to your Fretlight Guitar
System and will VOID your warranty.
The advanced polymer fretboard uses standard
silver-nickel frets and cleverly conceals the
patented Fretlight Learning system. The ultra-thin
circuit board contains 132 low-profile LEDs and a
dedicated Sonix micro-controller that powers the
learning system to display any chord, scale, song
or riff in real time.
The 8-Pin DIN Fretlight Jack
Fretlight Dual Footswitch
(Optional)
Using the optional Fretlight footswitch gives you hands-free control
of your Fretlight software. Simply connect the 1/4” plug from your
footswitch into the 1/4” jack on your Fretlight USB cable.
Do NOT use any solvents, oils or fluids other than water.
Doing so will VOID the warranty.
Do NOT use a powered sander or sanding device on your Fretlight.
Doing so will VOID the warranty.
Cleaning Your Fretboard
The advanced polymer fretboard acts and behaves like a normal rosewood or ebony
fingerboard in many ways except for cleaning and/or sanding. Use only a dry or damp
cloth (water only) to clean any finger oil or residue from your Fretlight fretboard.
After you’ve been playing for a few months, you may notice small scratches on the
fretboard’s surface. You can always smooth those out by buffing the fretboard lightly
with a Scotch-Brite™ pad.
