Acoustic pickup

This little pickup is awesome, thank you Curt and everyone at Sweetwater. If I ever get good enough I will update my Amplifier as well.

Rated 5/5

Keep this in your bag for when your piezo runs out of batteries.

I've tried piezo, microphone, and sound hole pickups and they all have their tradeoffs. This one sounds great and is very good quality. The integrated cord is plenty long enough, maybe even too long? I know longer cords can introduce interference. The cord is also very thick and heavy duty. I can fit this in my sound hole even with a sound hole volume control mounted in the way. When I was getting feedback with piezo and a microphone pickup (lr baggs lyric), this one has no feedback. The tone is great on these. I love that it's the happy medium between a quacky sounding piezo and and boomy or feedback prone microphone-based pickup system. I don't understand why reviewers knock a star off their ratings because the cord isn't long enough? Just hook up a direct box and extend it? Also, they knock a star off for being a single coil pickup and having inherent noise. That's like criticizing a gasoline car for having exhaust. It's a trade off. single coils have crisper, sparklier tone than humbuckers at the expense of the noise/hum

sound is great

the sound from this unit is extremely great. It's full sound from the bar is off the meter. I made the mistake of ordering for a round hole and I have an oblong hole, my bad. The bar still works great

To Hum or Not to Hum?

This is a really good acoustic guitar pickup. I've tried a lot of the less extravagant ones, from piezo and piezo/mic combos to the popular three-contact under-saddle (you know which one) to the plastic neodym type and overall this one sounds best and has the fewest problems. Long enough cord you don't have to drill any holes, I only wish it had a silencer type plug on the end but I'm taking care of that myself. Also, having bought the humbucker model subsequent to this one, I agree with other reviews that the single coil model sounds superior. Not enough hum to bother me for the better tone. A good solution for the age-old acoustic amplification problem at a great price. Turned my old Yamaha wall hanger into a workhorse.

Great sound and value

I have only gotten about 30 minutes of play time so far, but this is a great magnetic sound hole pickup. Easy to install, pretty transparent sound. This is ideal for the unplugged player who needs to plug in every now and then, also great if you want to play acoustic blues.
