Adding Anthem to Existing VTC

[Fitzz99]

Hi,
I have a guitar with a factory installed VTC. I would like the upgrade to the Anthem. In the photos of the Anthem, it looks like the mic and pickup each connect tt the pre-amp via 1/8"" plugs.

If I purchase the Anthem, Can I connect the existing under saddle VTC to the Anthem Pre-amp rather then replace the VTC with the under saddle pickup that comes with the Anthem?

If so, is there an option to purchase just the mic and pre-amp?

Thanks,
Tim

Hey Fitzz99,
Unfortunately, the Anthem is only available as a complete set. Since you can't really purchase the Anthem without the Element, it would only add time and money to convert the soldered-on Element to a mini-plug Element so that it would work with the Anthem. It's much easier (and cheaper) to just swap out the whole thing.

The good news is that there are no modifications needed on the guitar to upgrade from the Element to the Anthem. The installation is pretty simple.
