Imelod Contact Microphone Piezo Pickup for Violin, Cello, Banjo, Ukulele, Mandolin, and Guitar

Bon rapport qualité/prix.Fonctionne bien sur ma mandoline.

Devuelto, no sirvió para mi cello

Better than expected! I just put mine right under the back bridge and pushed it up in there nice and snug and it presses it tightly to the violins surface there and the sound is enormous, full, vibrant! Was not expecting it to sound that good. When I was doing my test I looked at the sticker things and said, no way XD did not even bother, just slip it underneath the back bridge and slide it back until you have it wedged in there snug, not too tight but You'll see, the sound just lights up. This is 1000% a great idea and will buy more for my other ha d made instruments I have. Thank you guys for making this really nice really affordable mic, I can't believe how great of a deal it was. 1 of my best buys and trust me, when you hear your violin thru an fx process you will be amazed. This is what you need 100% very cool indeed. 😎

Love the product, works great. I attached it below the bridge on my cello, but it is super tough to remove. Not sure if it’s supposed to be that hard? I had to use a knife to remove the sticky stuff. I’d recommend maybe using Velcro to remove if you’re trying to use this for multiple instruments

Super great deal. I attached it to my nylon string guitar. To the body just behind the bridge right in line with the lowest string. Wonderful sound. Sounds pretty much like the guitar without the pickup - only louder, of course. It’s a piezo pickup. Which means it has a piezo element in the plastic disk. Piezos pick up pretty much everything that they are in contact with. Since it’s designed to be a contact pickup (attached to the face of your instrument), it will pick up any sound that is made by that instrument. When you touch the instrument, it hears that sound. When you touch the strings or move your hand across them, it hears that, too. A bump, a knock, a strum, a pluck, whatever happens to the instrument, it hears it. It essentially turns your instrument into a microphone. And since you’ll be plugging it into a PA or amp of some kind, all those sounds get amplified -some more than others. Like with any electronic pickup, you have to be a bit more conscious of what you’re doing while playing or holding or touching your instrument. It’s not as “forgiving” as pure unplugged acoustic playing. A big thing to keep in mind with piezo contact pickups is that they are super sensitive to high pitched sounds. I suggest you place the pickup more toward the low strings. In fact, all the way down to your lowest string. You should get plent of high string sound there. Anywhere near the highe strings and the thing will scream with high pitched frequencies. And feed back will be nearly instantaneous. Placement is everything. Move it around the face of your instrument until you find a sweet spot that won’t be in the way of your playing action. I removed the sticker thing on it. Probably not the best thing for your instrument’s finish. I put Scotch double sided adhesive on it with their ATG roller. That sticks great but not so well that it’s hard to remove. I’ve seen people use ticky tak - that gum that you use to hang posters with on the wall. Even with good placement, you may still have to roll back the highs and mids a bit on your PA or amplifier.
