Using the Fishman Fission Bass Powerchord FX Pedal is easy. First, connect your bass to the single 1/4' input. You can adjust the trim control according to whether your instrument is active or passive. The mix output and effect output, both 1/4”, allow you to connect it to your amplifier or other audio equipment. When it comes to power, you can either use a 9 - volt battery or a compatible Fishman 910 - R power adapter. The battery can last up to 20 hours, so you don't have to worry about it running out during a short performance.
For maintenance, keep the pedal in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. Since it has a durable all - metal construction, it can withstand some bumps, but still handle it with care. If you're not using it for a long time, it's better to remove the battery to prevent any damage caused by battery leakage.
