haruki Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) Headway Band pickup system . £80 incl postage in UK Produces a great sound. Seems much more natural a sound than other piezo pickups iv'e tried. I've added some new velcro as it was getting a bit worn. Works fine though. Blurb from headway..https://www.headwaymusicaudio.com/product/the-band-double-bass/ "The Band is an instant-fit pick-up which Velcro’s to itself around the the body of the instrument. It requires no alteration of the instrument itself and generates a strong passive (no batteries required) signal which can usually be plugged straight into a mixing desk or combo amp. The multiple pick-up elements of the Double Bass version of The Band are tuned specifically for Double Bass and deliver a lively, tailored passive signal. The Band is used equally in folk/rock and classical situations and is a favourite with sound engineers and players alike, as it offers far greater volume levels before feedback, compared to mics. You can avoid being tied down to mic stands and The Band cuts feedback, bowing noise, body noise and excessive treble by acoustic filter" Edited September 16, 2018 by haruki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I'm tempted to put it on a solidbody bass guitar, see what it sounds like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
