Self-adhesive Pickups Piezo Transducer, 3 in 1 Microphone Contact & Endpin Jack 1/4" for Electronic Acoustic Guitar Violin Ukulele

I bought this so I can mix guitar and vocals and "play along" music while practicing. It wasn't too hard to install, but takes some thought. I did find that after playing for a bit, the endpin wanted to come loose. I used a few red threadlock drops and it's been tight ever since. The sound is pretty good. I mounted two piezos onto the bottom of the bridge (one on the "treble" string side and one on the "bass" string side) and one to the body just in front of the middle of the bridge. I just use the preamp on the mixer and it's a good mix. I suspect that a dedicated preamp would sound better, but for what I need it's surprisingly good with really no buzz. EDIT: still going strong after almost a year and a half. I just got a Behringer ADI21 pedal, which is about $35 and it makes this pickup set sound amazing. So for less than $50 all in, I have a VERY nice sounding cheapo guitar. FYI, this is mounted in a Jasmine S34C, which is incredible also for the price.

The product arrived from one day to the next. It came in a cushioned envelope. Upon opening it I noticed one of the piezos had broken white film-it was chipping away, the soldering was intact though. I had a decision to make- keep it or send it back??? For the price and having passed the test (hooked it to an amp to test it) I kept it. I reamed out my guitar endpin hole to 1/2” with Stewmac reamer I bought here on Amazon a couple of weeks back (along with some smaller drills to start the hole) I had the piezo installed in my classical guitar in no time. The threads on the jack can get cross threaded so don’t force it. As far as placement for the three piezos I just somewhat evenly spaced them just forward of the bridge ( similar to the K&K model) as best I could, my guitar has bracing. The piezos have 3M adhesive that work well I slightly tugged under the base of one of the piezos(not by the cable) and it was on there. So once you put them on you might not be able to move them without something damaging or falling apart. I then stuck the zip tie with the other base to hold the cables. Sound wise, I used a Fender Mini passport, the amp has different presets I simply found the best one that worked. I found in some cases I had to really blast the volume and in some cases there was too much volume(depending on preset). I did use a feedback buster(soundhole cover) but in some cases I still got some feedback. In my setup there was to much bass not enough mids or trebles ( results will vary depending on placement of piezos) and of course volume was controlled from the amp. I play at church but I think this pickup will only be used at home to jam and practice. All in all it was nice to electrify an old Yamaha classical guitar. For what it is and the price, I recommend it.

I purchased a used, low end Epiphone acoustic guitar. I really wanted an acoustic/electric but couldn't justify it as I play my electric guitar more. This solved my problem though. It was installed in about 30 minutes and may not be up to Tom Petty's standards, but totally works for me. It sounds pretty good and for this price you can't beat it. Don't expect to turn your $150.00 instrument in to a $1,000.00 instrument. But if you just want to amplify what you have, this works.

I put it into my resophonic guitar. Stuck the three pads in different places along the cone. I thought the sound was messy so I removed two pads. What was left was good sound for a $10 pickup. Better than any of the stick-it-on-the-outside-of the-instrument pickups I've tried. It's a very affoedable was to experiment. You'll probably want a better one someday, but this was a very good start for me.

Item works but only if you don’t fully insert jack. Have to hold the cable out about a quarter inch and not move it at all. Cheaper ones on amazon actually work better. Don’t buy this one

For those who put 1 star because it doesn’t sound like a million dollars and wouldn’t recommend it for a 5k guitar! Duh !!!!! Like seriously!!! It’s cheap, super easy to install, sounds much more than 10 bucks, with a cheap booster you can get it loud enough, I couldn’t be happier considering what I paid for it, great product , 5 stars.

I installed it on my banjo. I thought it would be smart to stick one disc underneath where I strum it…bad idea! The scraping of the strings and tapping of my strumming hand on the banjo head really stuck out. I pulled off that disc and cut the wire as it was SUPER hard to pull it off and bent the disc and broke its wire lead. No matter. There were two left under where the bridge sits and the cut off lead did not buzz. The sound is pretty darn good now! There are better sounding piezo pickups, but they cost a lot more than $10! The female jack is big and beefy. I am not worried about it breaking over time. The screw on cap makes it look very nice, like my banjo came with this from the factory. I highly recommend this pickup. Excellent value!

Electrified “stubs” my classical acoustic guitar. Easy to install and pretty decent sound for the price! Enjoyable to hear this electrified! Used fender mustang amp and the pickup plays well across all the various effects settings. I put the pickups inside right behind the bridge. No having an EQ does limit your control but for the price point it was worth it.

I use them on an upright bass and they are ok! A little experimenting helps in terms of placement, so use doublesided tape to find out where before you pull the adhesive backing off.

No installation instructions, however, found installation instruction video on Youtube which assisted. Sound is quite good and "chorus and reverb" are effective. All in all, this amplifier is worth the price,

Didn't hold in place, have to clean the self-adhesive and use glue. NO complaint , sound is nice and true ! JP

Not overly fussy about this product. The set up to engage the jack into the receptacle was off just enough to miss the connection necessary for function. Im trying to reset the distance the jack can go in, but there's only so many threads on the finish button... doesn't seem to wanna work with me. If it happens with the second one I got... I'll send it back.
