Sound
:
No Opinion
Perceived output level: The Fishman is pretty hot with out the K&K. I use effects and this is very helpful.
Tone: Balanced- the pots are adjustable.
Sonic evaluation: I use both a Kustom 30 watt practice amp with a 12" Celestial speaker
and a Mesa Boogie 1516 Stack with a 15", 10", 2 6"s, and a horn tweeter tube-powered by a Mesa Boogie 600+ amp.
For which styles and positions is this pickup (un)suitable: The pick up is pretty standard. The premap provides amazing clarity. Great match.

Comments: First preamp bought, and probably the last. If it was stolen or damaged, I'd definitely get another. It sounds great clean, but I haven't tried it with my effects pedals, namely Electro Harmonix: Small Stone Phaser, Memory Man Echo, Dunlop Bass Wah, ring modulator,
Envelope Filter, Bass synth. . .
