I was looking for a suitable pick up for my banjo ukulele. There are many different products available and a range of prices (some are very cheap...). After quite a bit of research I decided to go for one of the more costly ones. The reasons for this are mainly based around the quality of the build and the quality of the sound. Banjos & banjo ukuleles can be difficult to amplify fin a sympathetic way. I looked at many different luthiers around the world to see what pick ups they fitted and K&K banjo twin kept coming up.

Fitting was fairly straightforward although I did have to contact K&K customer service as I found the instructions slightly confusing (the pick ups come with the adhesive pads already attached and the pads in the set are spares!). K&K responded really quickly and were very friendly.

This item has the bonus of being able to fit the jack plug internal or external using the Velcro attachments provided. I opted for the external and since fitting the Velcro fitted jack plug it has not moved at all.

As a passive pick up there is not much to go wrong with them. The sound is great (loud) but in my option still needs to go through an external preamp to shape the sound.

Warning - Greatly reduces tone
Anonymous 18.09.2023
Pickup works well when plugged in, BUT completely kills the tone on my paramount tenor banjo, when playing acoustic (unplugged) at session. Volume seriously reduced and completely eliminates the effect of the arch-top tone ring. I'll have to do some serious adjustments beyond factory recommendations.
