Musical Instruments Pickups Piezo Microphone Contact 3 in 1 for Guitar Violin Ukulele

I’m really happy with the sound, crazy glued under my guitar bridge.. They are just the right size in a straight line. I removed the under saddle pickup and wired these in, perfect results.

I wanted to try this product out and had a guitar that I could live with or without. $9 isn’t a great deal of money to take a chance on so I sent off for it.It came with no instructions so I referenced the videos on installing the K&K Pure Mini. My guitar is a Gold Tone Weissenborn copy with a small sound hole which proved to be a challenge. After overcoming all that and installing the pickups I was excited to fire it up.Running though a K&K preamp the pickups did what they are designed to do. Running into a Roland JC-120 solid state amp the pickup does a good job of capturing the sound. I did have to tweek up the bass and and go down significantly on the treble via the pre amp. Of note, I play slide on the instrument and the pickups enhanced to string sounds on the slide. It was bothersome at first but I was able to refine my technique to where it’s less noticeable.In all, this is a pretty good deal. I’ve got K&K Pure Mini’s on my other instruments and this isn’t that refined out of the gate, but with good equalization it’ll give you a great bang for your money.

Awesome pickup! The only setback is a very long delivery time.

I installed this on my Martin 00-15m the other night. The hole wasn't large enough for the pin so I had to drill a hole. I'm not great with these sort of things, so I thought I could whittle to make the whole larger, but I ended up drilling the hole. I started with a smaller drill bit and worked my way up each time to get it right. I finally got it right and I started to put the pin through the hole through the soundhole. This was difficult. The Martin is smaller than normal Dreadnought guitars, but I was finally able to get it in there. I had to then take it out because I realized I put the wrong washers on the inside.I would highly recommend this video of the installation of K&K Pure Mini Acoustic Guitar Pickup. It helped me out a lot.[...]The three pickups have sticky pads on the other ends, which I stuck into place using the video above. I'm sure hot glue would have worked better, but I suppose the stickiness should hold for a long time. The wires then can be clamped together using the zip tie and a plastic holder (with a sticky bottom) so you can hold the wires away from the soundhole. It's a little confusing to explain, but using the video and taking your time, you should have no problem installing this on your own. Once I plugged it in and heard the sound I was damn impressed. I may pick up a few more of these for my ukulele and other guitars. The only thing I had to do was turn down the bass on my amp and it sounded just as good as my Dean Markley soundhole pickup (which doesn't fit the 00-15 so well, that's why I installed this.).It takes a few weeks to ship from China, but for the price, you cannot go wrong.

I bought this along with a cheaper unit (with only one pickup), and ended up installing THIS ONE on my nice acoustic ukulele. The sound is honestly pretty amazing. I put one pickup above the strings, one below, and one close to the bridge (all 3 on the inside of course). Some people recommend a preamp, which i may invest in, but i was getting adequate sound from my friends 2 guitar amps with out one. Installation took a total of under 10 minutes, and right off the bat i was having a blast messing around with my friends effects pedals and playing some nifty tunes. The female plug is quite heavy and requires some sort of attachment/anchor, i used velcro strips that i had laying around. Not the best, but not bad, i will probably change the way the plug is attached to my Ukulele soon.Sure, the wires coming out of the sound hole don't look pretty, but i play music to sound good not to look good.My ONLY concern is that the wires that attach to the pickups are only held in by their soldering, not by any other means. This means that any pulling, twisting or force applied to the wires has the potential for breaking. But for 14$ what more can you expect??? I remedied this by securing the wires to the body of my ukulele, which also prevents unwanted noise from wires rubbing on my clothes. I HIGHLY recommend this product.

This is a very cheap version of the K&K pure mini. The piezo elements are about double the size. I have this installed in a small parlor acoustic guitar. It sounds nice but there is a bit of hand noise when I rest my palm on the bridge pins. It works and sounds much better when put through some sort of eq, whether its a fishman pro eq type box or mixer. It comes in a plane bag with no instructions so look on youtube or google the instructions for installing by the guys over at K&K. You will have to drill out the strap button to fit the jack but that's easy work. Just use a good drill bit.Overall, very effective and affordable solution to amplifying an acoustic instrument without installing an under the saddle reed type pickup.

I installed this product in my guitar with no instructions included, but followed video installation guides for K&K Mini pickups, which is a very similar product in design. The piezo pickups have double-sided tape installed already, which aids in installation.It's installed and everything, with the pickups directly below the saddle and the endpin jack installed. However, it doesn't work at all. My amp and computer both show no activity when I strum or pick a string. I guess it serves me right for trying to cheap out and getting a cheap pickup for my cheap guitar. I'd remove it, but it would be difficult to remove and I'd never be able to put my guitar back to the way it was because I had to enlarge the endpin hole. Besides that, it's more hassle than it's worth to return it even if I did decide to remove it because it was so cheap. My advice? Skip this product, try something else.
