Important Safety and Warranty Information

We value you as a customer—and want our products to give you an inspiring, and gratifying,

experience. So, to insure your safety and protect your investment in Gibson’s LPX guitar,

please read and follow all safety warnings and operating instructions before using this

product, and keep all documentation for future reference.

Environmental Factors

Heat and moisture can harm your Gibson LPX. Please do not install or operate this guitar

near sources of moisture, such as sinks, damp basements, leaky roofs, etc. and never store

it near heat sources, such as heaters or radiators. Both you and your LPX will be much

happier if you store and operate this product under safe conditions.

Power Sources

Use only the power sources included in the LPX package. Make sure any power supply cords

are not located where they are likely to be safety hazards, such as on the floor where

people might walk, or in locations where they may receive pressure from items placed upon

or against them. Also, be very careful with any power source connections, such as where

the AC adapter connects to the wall outlet. If this is jostled loose, the G-Node USB 2.0

audio interface included with LPX may experience extreme power differentials, which can

potentially harm you and the product.

Service

Please do not attempt to service LPX or any of its accessories yourself—let our expert

technicians handle any repairs for you.

Speaking of experts, always send the LPX or G-Node USB 2.0 audio

interface to the factory for servicing if any of the following occurs:

Any foreign object (especially liquid) has gotten inside LPX or its accessories

LPX or its accessories have been exposed to water, dropped, or otherwise damaged

A marked change in LPX’s performance

You hear anything rattling around inside if you shake the LPX gently

LPX Controls

Please note the control names we’ll be using in this manual, and their locations.

About the Gear Shift Knob

The Gear Shift is a sophisticated “push-pull” knob with an illuminated interactive display. The

display shows PX's status as you select tunings, sounds, and additional functions. It is your

primary way of interacting with PX.

Pull the Gear Shift up (furthest from the guitar body) to apply power to PX.

Push down on the Gear Shift knob (pushing toward the body until it clicks) to turn off LPX.

This stores the current tuning and sound for recall next time you power-up.

The Battery

LPX must be turned on, with a charged battery, to work. Batteries can lose charge over

time, so please check the batteries when you receive LPX.

Pull up on the Gear Shift knob to turn on LPX. Within five seconds, a green circle should

appear momentarily in the middle of the knob to indicate the battery is charged.

Page 9

If not, open the battery door on the back of the guitar, and remove the battery.

Place the battery in one of the supplied chargers. A full charge takes about 70 minutes.

The battery charger light will be red while charging, then turn green when the battery is

charged. Insert the charged battery in the guitar.

Check the charge of the other supplied batteries, and if necessary, charge them to capacity

as you explore LPX. If you need additional batteries, use Samsung IA-BP80W (or equivalent)

camcorder batteries.

Low Battery Indications

Depending on how often you tune, the battery charge can last up to two hours of

continuous playing. The following indicators represent the battery status.

Gear Shift knob has green dot in center: Battery is charged, with at least 30

minutes charge remaining

Gear Shift knob flashes yellow: 10 to 30 minutes of charge left
