A look at the bottom of the Solidac reveals two ¼" outputs. The
output closest to the strap pin is a dual function jack. Used on its
own this serves as a mix out carrying the signal from the bridge
pickup jack the magnetic pickup signal is removed from the mix
output so that there is now a separate signal for each of the pick
You can access the Godin pickups by simply plugging your guitar
cable into the first output jack (Output #1). Figure 2 illustrates the
acoustic bridge transducers. This is a convenient way to isolate
the signals by having the pickups output to a guitar amplifier and
transducer output jack to a volume pedal before going to the PA
ducer volume on at all times and control the output with the vol
The Solidac is all about versatility. The humbucker-single-hum
bucker pickup design is considered to be the most powerful of
commonly used pickup configurations. Add to that the acoustic
pre-amp and the Solidac could easily become the only guitar
you'll ever need.

The second output jack (Output #2) is an Acoustic/Mix output.
When this output is used by itself it outputs the regular pickups
as well as the acoustic bridge transducers.
If both output jacks are used the signal from the magnetic pick
ups is removed from the Acoustic/Mix (Output #2) which now
becomes a dedicated acoustic bridge transducer output. This
feature enables you to separate the pickup output from the
the bridge transducer signal output to a P.A. or acoustic guitar
amplifier.
A convenient way of using the Solidac is to run the acoustic
or acoustic amp. You can then keep the guitar’s acoustic trans
