I assume by looking at the inputs that a splitter cable is needed to preserve the stereo signal. Is that correct? davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 11251 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Sunday, November 24, 2013 - 2:38 pm:    Yes; if you have a non-Series Alembic with Anniversary electronics, or if you are using the 1/4" jack in stereo mode on a Series instrument, then you can use a TRS splitter cable to send the neck pickup into one channel of an F-2B and the bridge pickup into the second channel. Instructions for how the cable should be wired can be found here. stout71 Intermediate Member Username: stout71 Post Number: 181 Registered: 7-2011 Posted on Sunday, November 24, 2013 - 4:59 pm:    Perfect. Yeah - I have anniversary electronics and will be outputting in stereo mode. Thanks! stout71 Intermediate Member Username: stout71 Post Number: 182 Registered: 7-2011 Posted on Sunday, November 24, 2013 - 5:11 pm:    Does any cable manufacturer make an "off the shelf" TRS 1/4" 90-degree instrument cable? The splitters are pretty easy to come by as well as straight TRS cables. The angled ones are eluding me. sonicus Senior Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 3121 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Sunday, November 24, 2013 - 5:25 pm:    Here you go friend !

The Whirlwind I have had for about 34 years. stout71 Intermediate Member Username: stout71 Post Number: 184 Registered: 7-2011 Posted on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 - 5:23 pm:    I placed an order with Bayou. Thanks for the tip!
