New from JJB-Electronics comes the first of our new Artist series, THE PRESTIGE 330! Our new line of pickups are constructed with the finest components available today! In fact, they are the same components that are used by the "big-box" companies that sell their systems for more than twice as much! This system is the same exact configuration that is sold for $130.00 by a very well known company. The first release from our new Artist Series, The Prestige - 330. These are built using very high quality 20mm piezo's. We can now offer to substitute these for 15mm piezo's upon request. Please select the desired size from the drop-down menu above. This configuration is designed for guitars which do not provide enough space on the bridgeplate to allow for the bigger sized piezo's. Both systems have a very similar tone but the smaller system provides a little less output than the bigger sized system. In many cases this slight difference is negated by the higher resonance of a smaller bridgeplate. These can be used with or without a preamp with fantastic results. These are ideal if you desire a less defined bass and mid-range output. They are designed for more resonant guitars or ones with thinner soundboards. It utilizes a triple surface transducer design. This results in a very wide frequency range and very natural reproduction of sound. The three- piezo configuration offers a few advantages over single and double piezo systems. Having three piezo’s affords you the opportunity to place them at three different points on the soundboard thus resulting in an improved dynamic range due to the fact that they transmit the resonation found at more than one point. These special surface transducers are under less pressure than under saddle pickups thus decreasing the likelihood of them transmitting a percussive or harsh sound. Each piezo is designed to pick up a string pair as well as the resonation found in a significant amount of the soundboard. These do not "fade" or distort at high volume or with high-power systems. The highs are crystal clear while the lows are, well, what they should be, low! This pickup configuration is offered in several high end guitars. All of our products feature quality components and construction. These utilize a premium quality Switchcraft 1/4” nickel plated mono end-pin jack.. This system will give you a very “clean” install for those who do not want to compromise the integrity of their beloved instrument. The end-pin jack also doubles as a strap button. These will work great in a variety of instruments. Mandolins, ukulele’s, bass guitars, banjo’s, violins, dobro’s, dulcimers, stomp boxes, etc. The possibilities are endless! These, like all of our systems, can be installed in about 15 minutes! They are a very simple and inexpensive means of turning your acoustic instruments in to acoustic electric. |
