Yamaha CPX15II Owner's Manual
PRECAUTIONS
Always set the VOLUME control to “0” when plugging in or
unplugging the connection cable.
The battery check indicator (BATT.) will light briefly when a plug is
inserted or removed from the output jack. This is normal and does not
indicate a malfunction.
The built-in preamplifier is automatically turned on when a plug is
inserted into the output jack.
Remove the plug from the output jack to turn off preamplifier power
and avoid unnecessary battery drain whenever the instrument is not
used or when playing without amplification.
If the instrument is not going to be used for an extended period of
time, we recommend that the battery be removed in order to avoid
power consumption or leakage.
Owner’s Manual
Thank you for choosing a Yamaha electric-acoustic guitar.
In order to make the most of the advanced features and
performance provided by your guitar, please read this
manual carefully before using the instrument.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Be sure to replace the battery as soon as possible when the battery
check indicator lights in order to avoid reduced sound quality.
* Be sure to remove the battery if the instrument will not be used for an extended
period of time in order to prevent possible damage due to battery leakage.

USING THE SOUND HOLE COVER
Feedback often occurs when controls are boosted on the electric acous-
tic guitar to match the volume of other instruments when playing in a band.
When the instrument is used under the conditions described above, the
Sound Hole Cover should be inserted into the sound hole.
With the Sound Hole Cover in place, feedback is effectively reduced.

q MASTER VOL. (Master Volume) Control
The 3 mixed pickup levels are sent to the MASTER VOL., which adjusts
the overall sound output level.
* Make sure that the MASTER VOL. is turned to “0” before connecting or
disconnecting.
* Raising the MASTER VOL. level will produce no sound if all 3 PICKUPS
LEVEL controls are set to “0”.
w BATT. (Battery Check) Indicator
This indicator will light when the battery needs to be replaced. Please
replace the battery as soon as possible when the BATT. indicator lights.
e 3 Band Equalizer
LOW : Boosts or cuts the level of the low frequencies.
MID
: Boosts or cuts the level of the middle frequencies.
HIGH : Boosts or cuts the level of the high frequencies.
r 3 PICKUPS LEVEL Control
MAIN
: Controls the volume of the main pickup.
TREBLE : Controls the volume of the treble side sub pickup.
BASS
: Controls the volume of the bass side sub pickup.
The Main Pickup delivers a balanced sound output of the acoustic guitar’s
basic tonal elements. Mixing in the dynamics and harmonic overtones
produced by the sub pickup outputs can be used to achieve a wide range
of tonal variations.
We recommend starting just with the output from the main pickup, and
adding and adjusting the output levels from the sub pickups (BASS SIDE/
TREBLE SIDE) to achieve a sound to your liking.
