Operating Your Guitar

1. Pickup Configuration (H-S-S)

Your Donner DST-100B features an H-S-S (Humbucker-Single-Single) pickup configuration. This provides a versatile range of tones:

• Humbucker pickup: Located at the bridge, this pickup offers a richer, warmer sound with higher output, ideal for rock and heavier genres.
• Single-Coil Pickups: Located at the middle and neck positions, these provide a brighter, clearer, and more articulate tone, suitable for blues, funk, and clean sounds.

• Position 2 (Bridge & Middle): Humbucker and middle single-coil combined.
• Pozice 3 (uprostřed): Middle single-coil pickup only.
