Care Of Your
Instrument
We recommend that you always keep your
instrument in a case when transporting or storing
it. This reduces the possibility of damage due to
nicks and jams, and sudden changes in climate or
atmosphere.
Carry the case with the lid towards your body.
In the event that you have not properly fastened the
latches and the case opens, the lid will fall against
your leg and prevent the instrument from falling on
the ground. Never put your instrument in the trunk
of your car or place anything on top of it.
Perspiration can damage the finish of your
instrument so always wipe down your guitar after
playing or before storing with a clean soft cloth.
Polishing it with some high gloss guitar polish or a
good quality carnauba wax polish will prolong the
durability of the finish.
Tuning Your
Instrument
Many individuals have their own method of
tuning their instrument. We recommend the follow-
ing method. A Toby bass guitar is tuned to A-440;
utilizing a tuning fork, electronic tuner or pitch pipe.
The following chart shows how different instruments
are tuned. The first string, for this purpose, is
considered to be the smallest diameter. Tune the
two outside strings first, then tune towards the
center. This equalizes the pressure on the bridge
and allows rapid tuning. Check intonation.
Action Adjustment
Action is the distance that a string
must be depressed before it meets the fret. Action
measurements are taken in 64th’s of an inch, and
are calculated from the top of the 12th fret to the
underside of the string. we set the action on all
instruments at the factory to the optimum playability
setting. On occasion, lower than standard settings
are desired by the player. This can be achieved
by adjusting the bridge studs (See Bridge
Adjustment). Lower than standard action can often
result in β€œbuzz” or β€œrattle”. This is caused by the
string vibrating against the fret. Buzz or rattle

caused by lower than standard action is not
considered a defect of the instrument.
For action at the 1st fret, all instruments are
set at the same height. Treble strings are set to
5/64” and the action progresses up to 7/64” for
the bass strings. Be sure that the truss rod is
properly adjusted before setting action.
Trussrod Adjustment
All guitar necks are subject to great stress as a
result of string tension, humidity or changes in
climate. Occasionally there are times when the neck
may need adjustment. The truss rod is adjustable
at the lower end of the neck, using an allen wrench
or an adjustment wrench. NOTE: This adjustment
should be performed periodically and only by quali-
fied repair personnel. Over adjustment can result
in damage to the instrument.
Intonation and
Saddle Adjustment
for a Tobyβ„’ Bridge
Your Toby Adjustable Bridge equipped bass
guitar comes to you pre-adjusted. But several
adjustment options are available to you:
1. String Height or Action*
The height adjustment of the bridge can be set
by using the two allen screws on either side of the
bass saddles. Clockwise to raise, counter-clockwise
to lower.
2. Adjusting The Intonation *
Intonation adjustment is usually only necessary
when different gauge strings are fitted. The saddle
positions are adjusted by the individual philips-head
screws located on the back of the bridge, sliding the
saddles forward or backward. To check the intona-
tion: Use an electronic tuner and tune the bass to a
standard pitch. NOTE: All Toby bass guitars use
A-440 for standard pitch. Play the harmonic at
the 12th fret, compare it to the fretted note at
the 12th fret, these notes should read the same
on the tuner.

The Toby Adjustable
Bridge
Restringing Your Bass
As simple as it may sound, proper string
installation is critical to the playability of your
instrument. An incorrectly installed string can slip
and cause the instrument to go out of tune.
1. At the Bridge
The bridge end of the instrument is strung as
shown in the image above. Different instruments are
strung according to the bridge and string type. The
bridge end is always strung the string postsbefore
at the headstock.
2. At the Headstock
Bring the string from the bridge to the post on
the corresponding tuner located on the headstock.
(A) Stick tip of the string straight down into the hole
in the center of the tuning post. (B) Bend the string
to the side so it rests in the center groove of the
post. (C) Turn the
tuning head to
increase the tension
of the string; making
sure that the string
winds the post,down
with enough winding
to ensure the string
sits firmly in the
groove of the nut.
Control Knobs
Your Tobias electric Bass guitar is capable of
producing a variety of sounds by manipulating
the controls.
Master Volume Control
The Volume knob, controls the amount of vol-
ume the pickups are putting out. Turning the control
clockwise produces more volume. Turning the
control counterclockwise produces less volume.
Treble Cut Control
Turning the Treble Cut control counterclockwise
reduces the treble output of the pickups and
produces a darker tone. Turning the control fully
clockwise will produce the brightest sound. This
means that the pickups full range of harmonic
frequencies are being passed on to your amplifier.
Bass Cut Control
Turning the Bass Cut control counterclockwise
reduces the bass output of the pickups and
produces a thinner tone. Turning the control fully
clockwise will produce the thickest sound. This
means that the pickups full range of harmonic
frequencies are being passed on to your amplifier.
Pickup Blend Control
The Pickup Blend control allows you to sweep
between the two pickups. The center detent gives
equal response from both pickups. Turning the
Blend control counterclockwise reduces the pickup
response of the Neck pickup, while turning the
control clockwise reduces the response of the
Bridge pickup.
