Sound
:
No Opinion
Perceived output level: Normal
Tone: balanced
Sonic evaluation: Installed it in a cheaper 'learner's' guitar which lacks a little
bass response and is a little to resonant. The pickup accurately
reproduces the sound produced by the guitar itself, and adds a little
bit of treble. I have to add a little EQ bass and subtract a small
amount of treble for a balanced sound.

Comments: It's easy to install, tools needed are a small drill bit for the the
pickup itself and 1/2 inch bit for the phono plug/strap button and
pliers. I accidently gouged the bottom of my guitar while putting in
the plug, so if you're not handy with tools, let your dealer do the
work!
An excellent value for the money.
