Wavelength™ Solo

Combat the dreaded ‘piezo quack’ with the Wavelength Solo. This system avoids the typical under-saddle distortion found in piezo elements by combining a thin piezo polymer transducer with a low-noise, 18V, high-headroom preamp with twice the dynamic range of typical 9V pickup systems, letting you strum as aggressively as you like without those unpleasant sonic artifacts. The sound is full, balanced and clear. The preamp also has an input for a second source which gets routed directly to the ring connector at the jack, so you can add a soundhole pickup, mic or other pickup source.

 

The Wavelength accommodates virtually all 6-string spacings, and works with most 12-string guitars as well. The element is easy to install in guitars with either 3/32” or 1/8” wide saddles, with typically no modification to the saddle slot. Add a plug-and-play Wavelength Vol & Tone Module for even more flexibility. The 18V preamp is powered by two AA batteries, and installation instructions are included.

Mag Mic™

Capture the true voice of your acoustic guitar with the active Mag Mic (SA-6). The Mag Mic combines a high-quality hum-canceling magnetic Stack pickup with an omni-directional condenser mic that includes volume controls. The magnetic pickup captures the detail and dynamics of your personal playing style while the mic gathers up the natural acoustic resonance and air of your sound as it reverberates inside your guitar. Together they provide crystal-clear acoustic tone that sounds just like your guitar whether you play fingerstyle, with a pick or with percussive and tapping techniques, but at the volume you need.

 

The Mag Mic can pop in and out of your guitar as required (with the endpin jack supported by a special built-in strain relief loop) or can be permanently installed. Powered by a 9V or 12V battery (with clips included), connect the Mag Mic to your favorite amp, pedal, PA, direct box or console with a standard guitar cable. It fits into guitars with soundholes from 3.75” to 4.2”.

Overture

The Overture™ picks up the warmth and character of your instrument with startling clarity and accuracy, preserving its natural acoustic sound for live performance and direct-recording applications. The ceramic accelerometer is a very small and light device that is mounted to your guitars top and senses the complex vibrations of your guitar. Combined with our preamp, which is slightly larger than a 9 volt battery, get excellent dynamics and a very wide frequency response. This is a great pickup for percussive players and it works well for steel or nylon string instruments.

Active Mag™

Voiced to accentuate the best qualities of your acoustic guitar, Active Mag is a high-quality hum-canceling magnetic pickup. Active Mag captures the detail and dynamics of your playing and provides warm, clear acoustic tone that complements your guitar whether you play fingerstyle or with a pick, at any volume you need.

 

Active Mag is flexible enough to be useful in almost any context – whether you’re playing live or recording. Adjustable pole pieces allow you to balance the output level of your strings, and volume and tone controls on the body of the pickup gives you easy access for adjustments. The tone control boosts or cuts treble, allowing you to adjust for the room you’re playing in or adapt the voicing of your instrument for multiple genres and styles.

 

Active Mag can pop in and out of your guitar as required (with the endpin jack supported by a special built-in strain relief loop) or can be permanently installed. It’s powered by two CR2032 batteries that mount directly to the pickup, making battery changes a cinch. Connect the Active Mag to your favorite amp, pedal, PA, direct box or console with a standard guitar cable. It fits into guitars with soundholes ranging from 3.75” to 4.2”.
