Portable bridge-mounted piezo, tailpiece-mounted output jack for banjo
Unlike other banjo pickups, BP-1 offers a unique way of sound capturing and delivers the natural tone from your banjo to your amp or mixing board.
There's a less chance of feedback than a banjo microphone pickup.
Detachable and one of the most portable pickups for banjo, BP-1 conveniently accepts a standard 1/4'' cable.
Features:
Install with no modification
The sensor is easily installed on the side of the bridge and no modifications to the instrument are required.
Wooden sensor
The piezo sensor has a lightweight wooden casing to achieve maximum tonal sensitivity and transmission.
Natural sound
BP-1 has a passive design that reproduces the natural sound of the instrument with no need for a battery.
Complete installation set
The pickup comes with additional shims and a microporous rubber slave for fitting the sensor in narrow bridges, and zip ties for attaching the jack housing to the bracket hooks.
