OT: Sustainiac with EMG installation.

[Mark Sottilaro <sine@zerocrossing.net>]

Hey,

I purchased a Sustainiac Stealth Plus a while ago, and I've been having 
trouble dealing with Sustainiac.  Basically, they asked about the 
configuration of my guitar (a Steinberger M series with two single coil 
EMG pickups, and a humbucker EMG at the bridge) and then proceeded to 
send me wiring instructions that in no way cooraspond to my guitar.  For 
example, they sent me a 9 pin jack, but the instructions only show 
installation for a standard 3 pin jack.  I've emailed them back several 
times, but they seem slow in returning my requests, and the last request 
seems to be going unanswered.

I've attempted to get professional help, but I've just ended up playing 
phone tag with a few people who don't seem to be hungry for my 
business.  I've got some basic electronic knowledge and OK soldering 
skills, and have done most of the hookup already.  I'm just stuck with 
how I'm supposed to connect the pickups to the rest of the circuitry and 
make it so the power disconnects when the jack is unplugged.

So anyway, if someone out there's done one of these Sustainiac Stealth 
Plus installations in a guitar using active EMG pickups, I'd love to 
know how you did it.  I've got gigs coming up and my guitar is in 
pieces!  HELP!
