Peavey T-15 User Manual

3. Place the guitar on a clean flat surface, so that only
the body is in contact with the work surface. Any pressure
on the neck will affect intonation settings.
4. Play the tst string open (small E) and compare it to
the pitch of the same string when it is played at the 12th
fret. The notes should be the same pitch.
5. Using an allen wrench, adjust the treble side of the
bridge so that the pitch of the open note and the fretted
note are the same. NOTE: It will often be necessary to re-
tune the open string to standard pitch after bridge
position is altered.
6. Repeat step 5 for the 6th string (Big E)
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 as Necessary until
intonation of the 1st and 6th strings are accurately
adjusted. The specially compensated T-15® bridge will
insure that the remaining strings are reasonably
accurate.

Care For The T-15®.
The T-15® is a high quality musical instrument
constructed from the finest materials and with the most
up-to-date production methods available. With
reasonable care, it should provide many, many years of
service and outstanding playability.
Temperature and Humidity:
it is important that your T-15® be protected from any
extremes or sudden changes in either temperature or
humidity. The instrument should be stored in its case
whenever it is nat in use
Strings:
String life may be greatly extended by frequent
cleaning and wiping after use. Dirt and perspiration tend
to build up on the underside of the strings, so it is often
necessary to slide a rag between the strings and the
fingerboard. Dirt-laden strings cause tuning and
intonation problems, as well as rust and corrosion.
For best performance, strings should be changed
approximately once a month or every twenty-four playing
hours. Some players may find that they preter to change
strings more often.
NOTE
YOUR 7-15% IS EQUIPPED WITH PEAVEY VELVET
GLIDERS — OUR NEW STAINLESS STEEL GUITAR
STRINGS. THE INTONATION AND ACTION OF YOUR
INSTRUMENT HAS BEEN CAREFULLY ADJUSTED FOR
MAXIMUM PLAYABILITY WITH THESE STRINGS. WHEN
STRING REPLACEMENT BECOMES NECESSARY, WE
RECOMMEND OUR HIGH QUALITY AND LONG
LASTING PEAVEY GLIDERS” STAINLESS STEEL
STRINGS.
Finish:
Your T-15® has a polyurethane finish which is both
durable and weather-resistant, but nevertheless, needs
care. Automative-grade waxes will protect, clean, and
shine it. Between waxing, the instrument should be wiped
with a dry, soft cloth.
Case:
A unique molded plastic case (Patent applied for)
provides maximum protection and road durability. The T-
15® case features large storage areas and a padlock tab
to facilitate locking for air shipment.
The case may be cleaned with a damp cloth, with or
without soap. Care should be taken to avoid wetting the
foam interior.
The Electric Case
The following are some general guidelines if you have
purchased the Peavey T-15® guitar with our optional
Electric Case™. The Electric Case™ is our rugged, double
walled and molded case which contains an extremely
sensitive 10 watt preamp, power amp and special
combination.
The preamp section contains two inputs for the guitar,
labeled A and B. Input A is the most sensitive Input and
will provide the highest amount of gain (volume). The B
input exhibits somewhat less gain than input A and
should be used with guitars which have very high output
(“hot”) pickups.
Next are the pre gain, equalizer and post gain controls.
These controls can be adjusted in a variety of ways to
obtain many different tonalities and textures. For
example: If you desire a very clean tonality, rotate the
post gain contro! between “8” and "10" and then adjust
the pre gain control to the desired volume level.
NOTE
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THAT THE PRE GAIN
CONTROL, FOR THIS APPLICATION, BE SET HIGHER
THAN ITS NUMBER “5” POSITION. PLACING THE PRE
GAIN CONTROL ABOVE THIS SETTING COULD
RESULT IN POWER AMP CLIPPING AND POSSIBLE
SPEAKER DAMAGE/FAILURE.
The equalizer control can now be adjusted to provide a
‘kapsie ee of sound ("0" - “5°) or a brighter tonality
If you desire a distorted sound for rock-type textures,
rotate the pre gain control between its number “5” to “10°
position and then adjust the post gain control between its
number "1" to "5" position. The equalizer control can be
adjusted for “silkier” distortion sounds {"0" - “5") or for a
greater amount of "bite" (“5° - "10").
NOTE
AS WITH THE SETTINGS FOR OBTAINING A “CLEAN”
‘SOUND, IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO ROTATE THE
POST GAIN CONTROL HIGHER THAN ITS NUMBER "5"
POSITION. SETTINGS HIGHER THAN "5" COULD
RESULT IN A POWER AMP OVERLOAD AND POSSIBLE
SPEAKER DAMAGE AND/OR FAILURE COULD
CAUTION
FOR YOUR SAFETY, WEHAVE INCORPORATED A THREE-WIRE
LINE (MAINS) CABLE WITH PROPER GROUNDINGFACILITIES.
IT IS NOT ADVISABLE TO REMOVE THE GROUND PIN UNDER
ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. IF IT IS NECESSARY TO USE THE AMP.
WITHOUT PROPER GROUNDING FACILITIES, SUITABLE
GROUNDING ADAPTORS SHOULD BE USED. MUCH LESS
NOISE AND GREATLY REOUCED SHOCK HAZARD EXIST
WHEN THE UNIT IS OPERATED WITH THE PROPER
GROUNDED RECEPTACLES.
