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.

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.

Sounds great
YertleTheTurtle 21.05.2021
I installed this pickup on a Hohner acoustic dreadnough guitar.
I found it easy to install, although you need is pierce the bottom of the guitar in my case.
It sounds good, although the output is low.

Good value acoustic pickup
SteveMack 02.02.2023
I bought this so that I could use my cheap "campfire guitar" as a backup when I gig.
It sounds great to my ears and has a good output level for a passive pickup.
The cable jack outer radius is a bit large and will probably require enlarging the hole in any standard strap to make it fit.

Great pickup
Anastas 01.02.2018
Great sounding pickup. It is very easy to install.
It does change the sound characteristics of your guitar but that is expected considering it is not a microphone but a magnetic pickup. The volume balance between the strings is good.
I would recommend this product.
