Battery Cover
Install batteries here.
Battery Type: Four AA
Life: Up to 9 hours with high powered rechargeable Ni-MH batteries (2600 mAH – 2700
mAH). Life may be less with regular alkaline batteries. We recommend getting 8 high quality
rechargeable batteries, so you can always have one set charging while the other set is in the
guitar. When the batteries run low, the blue power indicator will begin to flash as a warning
and will eventually go out.
When the batteries are dead or even removed from the instrument, the guitar still functions as a Stratocaster®,
so you will never have a “gig emergency”.
When turning the unit upside down, take care to prevent damage to the buttons, knobs, etc. Also, be sure to
handle the unit with care so as to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over.

• Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries.
• Remove the batteries whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time.
• If a battery has leaked, use a soft piece of cloth or paper towel to wipe all remnants of the discharge from
the battery compartment. Then install new batteries. To avoid inflammation of the skin, make sure that
none of the battery discharge gets onto your hands or skin exercise the utmost caution so that none of
the discharge gets near your eyes. Immediately rinse the affected area with running water if any of the
discharge has entered the eyes.
• Never keep batteries together with metallic objects such as ballpoint pens, necklaces, hairpins, etc.
