The deep double cutaway design provides unimpelded access to the highest fret while the extended upper horn balances the instrument, thereby avoiding the need to support the instrument with the left hand. The Cirrus features our hand-rubbed oil/ultra satin finished. Neck The neck is available in Walnut with a wedge fingerboard (Graphite Reinforced) both 4 and 5 string models are equipped with a two away adjustable steel Torsion Rod. A 12" radius; 24" fret and 34" scale. Fingerboard on 4 string model, 15" radius; 24 fret and 35" scale fingerboard on 5 string model. Pickups Each Cirrus instrument comes equipped with two internally active VFL™ pickups. The low impedance output increases the amount of signal-to-noise and produces a brilliantly strong signal over a wide frequency spectrum. The sensitivity level of each pickup may be adjusted by raising or lowering the pickup with height adjustment screws. Raising the pickup closer to the strings will increase sensitivity and lowering the pickup (away from the strings) will decrease the sensitivity. Bridge System The bridge system of this instrument is satin gold finished individual fingerstyle (string thru or drop slot) three way adjustable, with (Patented Dual Compression Tech). The individual saddle tracks adjust to determine both string height and intonation. Solidly anchored to the body (The Patented Dual Compression System) provided maximum punch, sustain, and string stability during the heaviest of playing. Battery The internal preamp places the Cirrus above other bass guitars of its type. It does, however, require two 9-volt batteries to do this. They are accessible by removing the battery cover plate from the back of the instrument. Heavy-duty or alkaline batteries are Note recommended for reliability and longest battery life. Low battery voltage will result in “fuzzy” or distorted sound, especially with higher tone and volume settings. Controls 1 2 3 4 5 Volume The volume knob (1) controls the total signal level from the magnetic pickups and the preamp to the output jack. Refer to Millenium Tone Network The tone network utilized is of the active 3-band EQ type. Each control [Low (2), Mid (3) and High (4)] offers 10 dB of boost (clockwise - CW) or cut (counterclockwise - CCW). Blend The blend control (5) is offered for a wider variety of sounds than available from conventional pickup selector switches. It may be varied from the neck pickup (full clockwise - CW) or any blend in-between. Output Jack The output jack is a genuine Switchcraft®* 1/4" phone jack which accepts standard guitar cables. (We recommend high-quality Peavey shielded instrument cables). * Switchcraft is a registered trademark of Switchcraft, Inc. Adjustments Your instrument has been carefully adjusted at the Peavey factory for accurate intonation and playing ease. However, your playing style and requirements may necessitate additional adjustments. These should be made by your authorized Peavey dealer, but with a little care and by closely adhering to the following instructions, you may attempt these adjustments yourself. Please read the instructions thoroughly before attempting any adjustments. Torsion Rod The neck is equipped with an a two way steel torsion rod neck, should neck adjustments be desired. While the neck should need few adjustments, neck relief (string clearance over fingerboard) can be tailored to your particular playing style or string gauge. Adjustments can be made by inserting the supplied Allen wrench into the adjustment bullet located in the access slot in top of the peghead. Rotating clockwise will tighten the rod, thus decreasing the amount of relief (underbow). Rotating counterclockwise will loosen the rod, thus increasing the amount of relief (underbow) in the neck. Adjustments should be made in small increments of 1/4 turn or less. Overtightening can damage the rod, thus voiding the warranty. If you are unfamiliar with making this type of adjustment, we recommend that you contact your local Peavey dealer for assistance. Pickups The sensitivity level of the magnetic pickups can be adjusted by raising or lowering each pickup with its height-adjusting screws. Raising the pickups closer to the strings will increase the output and sensitivity. Lowering the pickups away from the strings will decrease output and sensitivity. How you adjust the height of your pickups will greatly affect your tone and output levels. Experiment with different combinations until you get the sound you want. You’ll be surprised at how much tonal variance can be achieved with a simple pickup adjustment. String Intonation Accurate string intonation settings ensure that your instrument will play in tune at any point on the neck. The proper adjustments will maximize the accuracy of individual notes up and down the neck. Intonation is set by comparing the pitch of an open string to the pitch of the same string when played one octave higher at the 12th fret. The actual “vibrating length” of that s...
