Setup
■ Installing the Bridge
•The lower side of the bridge supports the 1st string (E),
the higher side supports the 4th string (G). Make sure
the bridge is placed properly.
• Make sure that the tailpiece side of the bridge is stand-
ing vertically in relation to the violin’s body. If the
bridge is leaning to one side, loosen the strings and
gently adjust the bridge with both hands. Also, make
sure that each string passes over its corresponding notch
in the bridge.
* Playing the violin with a bridge that leans may re-
sult in damage to the bridge or a deterioration in
sound quality.

■ The Shoulder Rest
Most standard size (4/4) violin rests can be at-
tached to the body of the Electric Violin.
Shoulder rest
■ Tuning
•The strings are tuned to the following pitches. The
1st string is tuned to E, the 2nd string to A, the 3rd
string to D, the 4th string to G and the 5th string to C
(EV-205).
Use a piano, tuning fork, tuner, etc. and adjust the
pitch of each string using the pegs.
• After tuning is complete, make sure that the tailpiece
side of the bridge is still properly aligned. If the bridge
is leaning in either direction, slightly loosen the
strings and carefully re-align the bridge using both
hands.
Natural wood is used for some parts in this instrument. Depending upon the manner in, or
the circumstance under which the instrument is used, your fingers, body or clothes may
become blackened or the wood parts may change color. If your fingers or body become
blackened, it is not harmful but please wash with water thoroughly. The maker takes no
responsibility for any discoloration of clothes or wood parts.

■ Changing Strings
As the strings get old, sound quality will gradually degrade, and the instrument will become
difficult to tune. Change the strings as soon as you think they are getting old.
When changing strings, use Yamaha strings designed especially for the instrument. These
strings are specially designed to eliminate electric noise.
Always change the strings one at a time, even if all strings must be changed.
1
Attach the string to the tailpiece.
•From above the tailpiece, insert the ball end of
the string into the hole on the tailpiece and hook
the ball end into the notch of the string hole.
• At this time, make sure the string’s ball end
comes in contact with the shielding sheet at-
tached to the underside of the tailpiece.
• The end of the strings are sharp and can cut fingers. Use caution when changing strings.
• When changing or adjusting strings, do not put your face close to the instrument. The string may
suddenly break resulting in eye or other unexpected injuries.

Insert the string into the hole on the peg and wind
the string onto the peg.
•Wind the 1st (E) and 2nd (A) strings to the
left of the hole as shown in the illustration on
the right.
•Wind the 3rd (D), 4th (G) and 5th
-
(C) strings
to the right.
• The string wrapped two or three
times around the peg makes the
most suitable condition for tuning
the violin. Too many or too few wraps
may result in inaccurate tuning or
noise while playing.
Make sure that the strings do not pull on the
bridge causing it to over toward the fingerboard.
Also, make sure that the strings pass over their
corresponding notch in the top of the bridge.
(Make sure that the tailpiece side of the bridge is
standing vertical in relation to the violin body.)
If the 1st (E) string has a protective tube on it,
slide this tube down onto the thicker, ball end of
the string (wound with thread) so it does not cause
noise and remains out of the way.
Caution

Use a piano, tuning fork, tuner, etc., and adjust
the pitch of each string using the tuning pegs.

Power Supply
The Electric Violin requires power when it is operated in the Controlled Mode, or with a pair of
headphones. Power is supplied by a single 6F22 (S-006P) 9V battery.
Before preparing the power supply, make sure that the Control Section’s LINE OUT and
PHONES jacks are disconnected.
* The Electric Violin operates without power in the Direct Mode.
Bij dit produkt zijn batterijen geleverd.
Wanneer deze leeg zijn, moet u ze niet
weggooien maar inleveren als KCA.
When battery power is depleted, volume will be reduced or the sound will become distorted. In that case,
please take careful note of the following precautions and replace the battery. For information average
battery life, refer to the specifications section on page 15.
•Always follow the +/– signs when inserting the battery. Improper insertion may result in fire.
•To prevent possible damage to the unit due to battery leakage and unnecessary power drain, remove
the battery from the unit when it is not going to be used for an extended period of time.
1
Open the battery case, located on the backside of the instrument, by pushing on the tab labeled
“OPEN” and lifting open the battery compartment cover.
2
Connect the supplied 9V battery (6F22:006P) to the battery snap. Take careful note of the polarity
markings (+/-) as shown in the illustration.
Also, insert the battery at an angle and set so that it is positioned under the hook that holds the
battery in place. (Refer to the illustration below.)
* If the battery is inserted with force onto the hook, it may result in damage to the hook, etc.

■ About the Controlled Mode
The instrument can be operated in one of two modes, the Direct (Passive) Mode or Con-
trolled (Active) Mode. Use the Mode Switch q on the Control Section found on the back of
the violin to select the mode.
DIRECT (Passive) Mode
In this mode, the signal produced by the pickup is sent, directly to the LINE OUT jack delivering
the instrument’s straight, unaltered tone.
This mode does not use the preamp therefore battery power is not required (the violin will oper-
ate without a battery).
* However, if headphones are used, battery power is required even in the Direct Mode.
CONTROLLED (Active) Mode
In this mode, the signals produced by each of the strings’ pickups are sent to a built-in mixing
amplifier before being sent to the LINE OUT jack. This mode offers control over the volume
balance between the strings.
Battery power is required in this mode.
* Set the Master Volume u to its minimum level before switching modes. (→See page 13)
● Balancing the volume between the strings (Controlled (Active) Mode)
Remove the battery compartment cover and use the six controllers to balance the volume between the strings.
Rotate the controller to the right (clockwise) to increase the volume, or rotate the controller to the left (counter-
clockwise) to decrease the volume. The controllers default position is shown in the illustration below.
* Controllers 1-5 w correspond to the 1st through 5th strings.
* Control #5 does not operate on the EV-204.
* The MAIN control e is used for adjusting the overall volume after mixing the output of strings 1-5.

• Before connecting the Electric Violin to any external devices, make sure that the power of all
external devices is turned OFF. Set the volume level of the Electric Violin and any external
audio sources to the minimum level before connecting anything. High volume settings could
cause damage to the equipment and your hearing.
• If a connection cord is unplugged while the power is ON, it may result in damage to the equip-
ment. The sudden shock to your ears may be great, so please use with care.
• Be careful not to step on the cord. The cord may break, equipment may be damaged, and this
may cause a substantial shock to your ears.
•Power is switched on when a plug is connected to one of the jacks. After playing, disconnect
the plugs to save energy.
■ Using Headphones
Connect a pair of headphones, etc. to the PHONES jack (mini jack) r to monitor sound
output. The VOLUME knob t can be used to control the monitor volume.
* The VOLUME t knob’s setting does not effect the output of the LINE OUT jack.
* When a pair of headphones is used in the DIRECT Mode, battery power is required.
* Do not operate the instrument at high volume levels when using earphones (headphones) for any ex-
tended period of time. Doing so can lead to irreparable damage to your hearing.
■ Controlling the Output Volume (Master Volume)
The knob u located on the tailpiece section is the Master Volume, which controls the volume
of the output from the LINE OUT jack y.
Rotate the knob to the right (clockwise) to increase volume, and rotate the knob to the left
(counter-clockwise) to decrease volume. When the knob is fully rotated to the left, its level is
“0” (no sound).
This knob functions in both Direct and Controlled modes.
