Easy installation, transparent sound

ErcanYg 09.11.2021

It's really easy to install and use. Sound has a little electric bite - which I like - though still transparent to transfer he sound character of the guitar and the harmonics it produces. It's a real deal with cost effective pricing.

Quality passive acoustic humbucker

Thirdratepoet 13.06.2022

Well made and easy to fit - the facility to unplug the internal cable from the pickup is a real bonus. Sounds less ‘electric’ than most of its competitors, has little or no noise.

With careful use of external EQ (this is a passive pickup with no control except volume) you can shape this to sound pretty good. It responds well to modulation and time based effects, and benefits from a little compression.

I really made a good choice

Together with the Harley Benton CLA-15M, I purchased this wonderful pickup. An nice mix of low and high tones.

DECENT PRODUCT .

Trevor240 27.02.2024

I was looking for a reliable and simple solution to amplify my Guild acoustic for playing old time blues and roots music. The sound I wanted was that gritty tone you hear in early Lightnin Hopkins or Jimmy Reed records.
I play this guitar through a small pedal board and into my HK Era acoustic amp, or sometimes through a Quilter Soundblock US, straight into a PA feed.
…… This is a low output pickup which suited my needs for acoustic work with minimal feedback. It is not going to capture the pure acoustic tones that some may want, but it offers many advantages over piezo or microphone systems, and got very close to the sounds that I wanted
Installing was super easy….no need for a tech guy. I actually cut off the wire from the strap button type input, and simply soldered the bare wires to a standard input socket to the side of my guitar.
For the money, this is a very useful product. It may not suit the purist audiophiles chasing acoustic tone, but for my sort of music, it’s a great , simple and maintenance free solution. Well worth considering.
