## Questions & Answers

**Q: dòes anyone know which would be the best option? Using this on my stentoŕ 1500a (stentor 2) or buying the stenor 1515 acoustic electric violin. Ideas?**
A: Hi acoustic electric violin are ok if your willing to spend a good bit of money on them my advice would be to use the pickup as I find you get a more natural sound

**Q: Do i need a pre-amp, or will this plug straight into the amp? Thanks.**
A: It gives out a very weak signal, if your amp has a mic level input and you are only running a short lead it is just about ok!! Ideally I would use a pre-amp or a DI box,personally I use a DI box (StageBug SB4) but you do need an amp/mixing desk with phantom power if you go down that route.

**Q: Hi would this work on a mandolin?**
A: No, get the right one for a mandolin

**Q: Does this come with an amp cable ?**
A: No it doesn’t.. just the pick up.
