Acoustic Guitar Pickups

Acoustic Guitar Pickups offer a whole new dimension to the sound of your acoustic guitar. They are designed to be transparent and offer a clear representation of your guitar's sound to any amplifier, mixer, or interface. While they operate on the same core principles as electric guitar pickups, acoustic guitar pickups have some differences. The term Piezo is used and this refers to the type of pickup which lies underneath the bridge/saddle of an acoustic. These Piezo pickups operate using vibrations which works excellently for both steel and nylon string guitars.

A Piezo pickup is used in conjunction with an on-board preamp which can usually be found as a small box installed on the side of the guitar, or as a couple of controls under the edge of the sound hole. This preamp will control the details of how your sound is translated, often coming with EQ controls, Volume Controls and sometimes even a Tuner. Soundhole pickups are another options and will capture the sound of your strings clearly and usually are easy to install into your acoustic guitar.
