Clarky Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) This is a US-made mag pickup for DB that affixes with 3M Dual Lock (ultra-strong velcro) to the end of the fingerboard (you will need a fresh piece as the one at the end of my fingerboard won't come off without losing its sticky side) and has adjustable pole pieces, which needs a hex key for adjustment. The pickup itself is hum cancelling and sounds quite woody. As I am going to use a Baby Bass for Rattlin Bone gigs in future I have no need of a feedback-killing mag pickup any more. This cost me about £120 but as these are not very well known (unlike Kent Armstrong and Schaller mag pickups) I will sell for £85 posted [url="http://cgi.ebay.ca/KRIVO-Handcrafted-Magnetic-Pickup-Upright-bass-/300571167807?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45fb700c3f#ht_2116wt_482"]http://cgi.ebay.ca/KRIVO-Handcrafted-Magne...f#ht_2116wt_482[/url] Here is the worst ever advert for a pickup on Youtube and - no - its not me Edited July 7, 2011 by Clarky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Phibes Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Bugger, pulled the trigger on one about two weeks ago! I'd have had this in a shot, mine sounds great. Bump for a nice mag pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
