Who is the Seymour Duncan Wavelength Solo designed for?

The Seymour Duncan Wavelength Solo is specifically engineered for classical and nylon string acoustic guitars. It's perfect for musicians who want to amplify their instrument while preserving its natural, warm tone for live performances, recording, or practice. It provides a clear, balanced signal suitable for various playing styles.

What kind of sound can I expect from the Wavelength Solo pickup?

You can expect a natural, articulate, and balanced sound that faithfully reproduces the unique character of your nylon string guitar. As an active piezo system with a built-in preamp, it delivers a strong, clear signal with excellent dynamic range, ensuring your amplified tone is rich and full, without unwanted noise.

How is the Wavelength Solo powered, and how do I adjust its tone?

The Wavelength Solo is powered by two AA batteries, providing reliable performance for your gigs and sessions. Its 18-volt, high-headroom preamp delivers a strong, clear signal with excellent dynamic range, ensuring your amplified tone is rich and full. The system is designed to faithfully reproduce your instrument's natural sound, focusing on clarity and balance rather than onboard tone adjustments.

Is the Wavelength Solo compatible with my classical guitar's saddle?

Yes, the Wavelength Solo is designed for undersaddle installation and comes in versions compatible with both 3/32" and 1/8" saddle widths. This ensures a proper fit for most classical guitars. For optimal performance and installation, consulting with a Sweetwater Sales Engineer or a professional luthier is recommended.

Get to know them!

From a company dedicated to quality pickup systems that capture the truest sound of your instrument possible comes the Seymour Duncan Wavelength Solo nylon-string acoustic guitar pickup. Specifically designed for your nylon-stringed acoustic, the Wavelength Solo features an under-saddle piezo that captures the natural sound of your acoustic at its most resonant point: under the saddle and bridge. And because Seymour Duncan knows pickups, they have gone the extra mile to ensure this piezo system delivers only the best of what it has to offer, keeping the legendary piezo "quack" at bay.

The guts — the good stuff!

Getting into the guts of this amazing system is part of what we do here at Sweetwater. And with the Wavelength Solo, we were impressed with the detail and design. By joining a thin piezo polymer transducer with a low-noise, 18-volt, high-headroom preamp that boasts twice the dynamic range of typical 9-volt pickup systems, you can strum as spiritedly as you like and not worry about any unpleasant sonic elements bleeding through. Instead, you will hear a full, balanced, clear tone that will leave you and your listening audience delighted. Further, if you want to add a soundhole pickup, mic or other pickup source, there is a second-source input that lets you do so.
