Used It with Ukulele - Does the Job, Great Value
StoningRolls 09.09.2021
I needed something to connect my soprano ukulele to the computer (for recording), and I realized this might be the cheapest way to do it, if I didn't want to use any external microphones.

The pickup is very easy to place (using the accompanying sticky blue-tac-like paste), and does the job as you'd expect. For the ukulele, I realize the optimal placement is NOT under the bridge, as acoustic guitar users suggest, but right below the sound hole.

Two IMPORTANT things to consider:
1) You'll need some sort of preamp. I plugged it to my Zoom G1X, and it works flawlessly (plus, I got some cool effects).
2) Be VERY careful with feedback. I stupidly turned my guitar amp toward myself while trying to play. The pickup... picks up sound, which above a certain volume can cause some massive feedback. Turn the speaker the other way around, lower the volume, or use headphones.

Other than that, not much to add. It's not professional-grade, but it definitely does the job.

Always in my bag in case I need to record an acoustic instrument
SergioKE 08.12.2022
Needed some time to find the sweet spot for the resonance, but I even got to amplify and use effects with my standard piano :) Nice sound, good price. Thinking of getting a spare, in case I accidentally brake it or loose it.

Great drum trigger
Father Ted 21.08.2024
I feed 4 of these into a Roland TM-2 to trigger 4 different drum sounds using my foot. Works great but I do have to replace them every few months.

Not badly made, externally.

Has a high noise level. So, use on loud sounding items.

Good product for the price

Good product for the price. I use this with my Taylor BT and works fine although depending on the position it can give some nasty feedback.

Ugly, but does the job
Silvester Lynx 20.01.2023
It sounds as good as any piezo that just sticks to the top. The Sound is not superb, but it does the job. I have had multiple gigs with this on my mandoline and it works fine. Just the engraving on the top that is visible looks outdated and ugly, whatever it is meant to be.

Not bad at all
GlebPortugal 31.08.2020
Great pickup! But very sensitive, even the movement of the hand on the top of the guitar is noticeably reflected in the final recording.
