Installing the TB68/T J.Rallo set on the "Tablas"

Installing the pickups is easy, as it just involves inserting the tabs under each of the peripheral patches. These tabs are flat enough not to deform the skin at all. On the other hand, its tension allows maintaining to the fixed pickup, without undesirable vibrations and without using double-sided adhesive tape. It is advisable to test the position of the pickups until get the best sound in an area that does not hinder performance.
In the installation process we will first place the pickup tab for the "baya" (large size) under the patch of its external area, as can be seen in the photos. Next, we will fix, with the incorporated velcro, the output connector vertically on its metal body. Next, we will fix the small pickup on the "tabla".
