SHOULDER REST

Your ZETA Strados Violin can be used with any shoulder rest - feel free to
experiment with different models to find the best fit and most comfortable
shoulder rest for your playing style.


TUNING PEGS

The ebony tuning pegs are designed to hold the strings at pitch for long periods of
time without needing adjustment. The fine tuners behind the bridge provide
control for normal daily tuning. The pegs are tightened by the same procedure as
on a traditional acoustic violin. For best results, push the peg inward toward the
peg box while tuning.

STRINGS

Your ZETA Strados Violin comes equipped with a fresh set of ZETA's Strados
violin strings. These strings have been specifically designed to optimize tonal
output of the Strados Pickup System (which is a feature of the Strados Violin).
For very best results, we recommend using the ZETA Strados violin strings.

INSTRUMENT CARE

CLEANING:

Wipe only with a clean, dry cloth or use a high quality, non-abrasive
instrument polish.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT:

One internal 9-volt battery powers the active electronics of your Strados
Violin. A fresh 9-volt battery should last approximately 1,000 hours of
normal playing time (usually 1 to 3 months' worth of playing).

To replace the internal 9-volt battery, you will need a small phillips
screwdriver, as well as a fresh 9-volt battery. Using the small phillips
screwdriver, simply remove the screws from the back electronics plate.
Next, remove the drained 9-volt battery. Replace this battery with the
fresh 9-volt battery. Finally, replace the back electronics plate and each of
the screws.
