A kit designed for an "as original" integration in the GK universe
The Boss GK-KIT-BG3 is aimed at bassists who want to go beyond a temporary mounting and achieve a durable, robust installation suitable for the stage. The goal is simple: to permanently integrate a GK-3B pickup into the instrument, with dedicated connectivity and accessible controls, while maintaining coherent ergonomics.
For whom and for what use?
This kit is ideal if you want to equip your bass with a divided pickup (GK-3B pickup) to exploit a signal per string and open the door to advanced uses (controlling a processor or compatible module via 13-pin connection ). It is particularly suitable for studio and live musicians seeking a reliable, wired, and long-lasting solution rather than a removable setup.
Kit contents and key points for installation
The GK-KIT-BG3 includes all essential elements for a complete integration: the GK-3B pickup itself, a printed circuit board for the electronics, control switches, an LED indicator, the 13-pin connection, and associated wiring. This all-in-one approach facilitates installation planning and ensures component coherence. For optimal results (drilling, cable routing, pickup positioning, long-term reliability), professional installation is recommended.
