    Purchased in 2001 for about FRF 500 or € 80.

    Passive humbucker for acoustic guitar equipped with a volume control and tone to get into the rosette.

    I bought it because, having been six months to find an acoustic sound that I like, I finally accepted the idea of ​​buying an unamplified especially since I liked the sound piezo little the time. I already had a sh330 Shadow (single coil very good) and I wanted something that sounds less electric. Other magnetic pickups are too expensive for me at the time so I chose this model.

    I mounted in the rose is not a model of its kind and once installed, it changes the behavior of the soundboard but it's quite common on these microphones.

    Purchased in 2001 for about FRF 500 or € 80.

    Passive humbucker for acoustic guitar equipped with a volume control and tone to get into the rosette.

    I bought it because, having been six months to find an acoustic sound that I like, I finally accepted the idea of ​​buying an unamplified especially since I liked the sound piezo little the time. I already had a sh330 Shadow (single coil very good) and I wanted something that sounds less electric. Other magnetic pickups are too expensive for me at the time so I chose this model.

    I mounted in the rose is not a model of its kind and once installed, it changes the behavior of the soundboard but it's quite common on these microphones.

    Pros:
    - You can adjust the microphone height above the strings.
    - The volume control is very useful

    Cons:
    - Output level down to a micro désepérament rosette.
    - The diffuse and dull very difficult to equalize for 6 strings
    - Connectivity thought for a permanent installation

    So I do not recommend this purchase. You can find today Di Marzio Quick Mount easier to assemble and disassemble not too expensive and more effective. For my part, I finally put the piezo (Fishman transducer and preamp Powerjack) and find myself very happy.

    Note: I ended up giving the microphone to a friend so she can amplify his twelve-string. It was the first time I heard something decent out of this microphone. Perhaps the export should in this way?

    - How long have you use it?
    3 years

    - What is the particular feature you like best and least?
    The best: the rglage volume and Tone right on the microphone rosette
    Systm directly to the jack in the box
    the least: The lack of an internal prampli which limits the use of the large scnes

    - Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
    Yes the Shadow SH712 (both aptchs a paste on the body much less convenient)

    - How do you report qualitprix?
    At the time bought 115, the price is right for the quality of the product

    - With the exprience, you do again this choice?
