MI-SI ACOUSTIC TRIO VIOLIN SYSTEM Photo
This very innovative acoustic violin pickup system incorporates a Kremona pickup element with the Mi-Si chargeable preamp embedded in a Carpenter style jack (which clamps to the edge of the instrument like a chinrest does). The unique aspect of the preamp is that you power it up with the special Mi-Si charger which connects to a standard AC outlet straight to the output jack. 60-seconds later (yes, just 1-minute) the preamp is fully charged for an effective playing time of 8 hours!! No more batteries. The pickup element inserts into one of the bridge wings (compression is important here, so some trimming or shimming may be needed). Professional installation recommended if bridge alteration is needed. Charger is included.

STELLING BANJO PICKUP
Mounts on rim rods. Two sensors touch the head near the neck joint (with a bare minimum of pressure) and transmit the head vibrations to the pickup. Tone is full-bodied with great resonance. The 1/4" jack mounts in the banjo flange. Plug directly into amp or PA, no pre-amp is required, though as with all pickups some eq is desirable. Cord not included. A keyboard or bass amp gives the best result. Although the sensors do not affect the acoustic tone significantly, it is a simple matter of removing the resonator and loosening a wing nut, to back them completely away from the head if desired.

AUTOHARP PICKUP Photo
from OSCAR SCHMIDT - mounts under strings under chordbar holder. Volume and tone control unit attaches to side of chord bar cover (21-bar) or holder (15-bar). 1/8" output jack. Cord included. NOTE: IF YOU LOSE THE CORD, our CMP310 is a good replacement cord. INSTALLATION NOTE: The pickup has a tab at each end which fits into a recess that is molded into the 21 bar chord bar holders. The 15 bar chord bar holders do not have this recess. There are two simple solutions in common use. (1) The tabs are extremely thin. Some people stick them under the chord bar holder and screw it back down, with no apparent ill effects. (2) It is also fairly easy to make a recess on the bottom of the chord bar holder with a file or other tool.

MI-SI ACOUSTIC TRIO MANDOLIN SYSTEM Photo
This very innovative acoustic mandolin pickup system incorporates a Kremona pickup element with the Mi-Si chargeable preamp embedded in a Carpenter style jack (which clamps to the edge of the instrument, with a maximum edge depth of 1-11/16"). The unique aspect of the preamp is that you power it up with the special Mi-Si charger which connects to a standard AC outlet straight to the output jack. 60-seconds later (yes, just 1-minute) the preamp is fully charged for an effective playing time of 8 hours!! No more batteries. The bridge must be a traditional adjustable bridge and the element wedges between the base and the saddle piece (compression is important here, so some trimming or shimming may be needed). Professional installation recommended if bridge alteration is needed. Charger is included.
