THE GB 40 GUITARBUG FOR GUITAR AND BASS

AKG WMS 40 UHF FOR GUITAR & BASS

ON/MUTE/OFF switch

Setting the switch to the "MUTE" posi-

tion mutes the audio signal, while the

transmitter continues radiating the RF

carrier frequency. This prevents the

receiver from being disturbed by other

transmitters while the microphone is

"off the air".

Flexible antenna

To maintain perfect transmission, the

antenna should be visible from the recei-

ver location at all times. So make sure

never to cover the antenna with clothes or

other elements of the costume.

Battery status LED

Battery life is approx. eight hours for an AAA size 1.5

V dry battery and approx. six hours for a recharge-

able battery. When the status LED is lit red con-

stantly the battery will be dead in about 50 minutes.

The maximum charging time for a rechargeable

battery is one hour.

Input gain control

Sets the sensitivity of the transmitter’s

audio section.

Battery compartment

The transmitter can be powered from a dry

or rechargeable battery. The color of the

battery compartment cover indicates the

carrier frequency of the transmitter and you

can replace the colored cover with a black

replacement cover if required.

Accessories

We recommend using the optional CU 40 charger to charge

the battery inside the battery compartment. The bottom

panel charging contacts eliminate the need to remove the

battery for charging.

GB 40 guitarbug

Too long. Too short. Forgot it. Tied up in

knots. Tangled up. Gone. Pins reversed.

Disconnected. Broken. Must be hard to

find a guitarist or bassist who never got

furious about their cables and the related

mess.

The convenient alternative from AKG is

called the GB 40 guitarbug, a WMS 40

Microtools Series miniature transmitter

specifically designed for guitars and bas-

ses. It matches any instrument with a 1/4"

TS jack, including keyboards. The spring-

loaded "FlexJack" swiveling jack plug

connects to the instrument and pulls the

transmitter against the instrument. The

soft-touch coating on the transmitter bot-

tom panel stabilizes the transmitter on the

instrument and prevents the instrument

surface from being scratched.

The GB 40 guitarbug is a UHF transmitter

with superior price/performance. Optimized

for use by guitarists and bassists at small

clubs, rehearsal rooms, or local communi-

ty centers, it is exceptionally easy to use.

The operating cost of the GB 40 is surpri-

singly low, too. A single AAA size 1.5 V dry

battery will last for about eight hours of

continuous playing. If you use many bat-

tery powered effects units and tuning devi-

ces, spending an appreciable part of your

fees on batteries for your equipment, you

can power the GB 40 with a rechargeable

battery (six hours battery life). The optio-

nal CU 40 charger will fully charge the GB

40 guitarbug in half an hour, and the half-

rack receiver can be rack mounted as easi-

ly as you can put it in your guitar bag.
