Thank you for joining the whammy revolution with us. Virtual Jeff PROTM is precision made and built like a tank.

We’ll get you going asap with no corporate run-around. Please visit our website for a more detailed manual as well as helpful user videos on each topic.

MODES A & B

We use MODE A for regular bends and MODE B for wild and crazy stuff. 1. Use UP & DOWN buttons to change pitch settings for MODES A & B 2. Orange LEDs indicate the current settings in each Mode 3. Your settings are remembered after powering off

V-CAPO

When active, it’s like a regular capo in both directions – capo higher AND lower. The whammy works as normal at all V-CAPO settings.

Run wireless using MINI-LINK, our micro 2.4GFtz transmitter. PRO-LINK will be available in the near future but we’ve included MINI-UNK so you can enjoy the fun of wireless now. It has extended battery life and an easy set-up. MINI- LINK is great for practice or small gigs but not recommended for critical use or stadium gigs. That’s PRO-LINK territory.
71P: If you’re using a wireless link for your guitar (e.g. Line6 610 etc). we recommend getting it running first. and MINI-UNK will automatically avoid its channel(s).

When playing, it blinks frequently if there’s bad interference. Rig in a data cable at any time to change back to Wired Mode.

PLACEMENT

MINI-LINK works best with line-of-sight to the CONTROLLER. Our favorite position is to put MINI-LINK in our front jeans pocket. It works well in that location and is very convenient when guitar swapping.
