Thread Name: Opinons on pick-ups for acoustic guitar
Subject: RE: Opinons on pick-ups for acoustic guitar
After talking about that pick-up I thought I'd see if I could repair it, so I soldered a broken wire and put it on the 12 string. Still sounds great. It's a piece of vinyl tape about six inches long with a transducer wire inside and you just stick it behind the bridge with two sided tape. It really is called a "Helpinstill" and if anyone finds one still there in a music store (I don't think they've been made for several years) grab it. Should be cheap, and doesn't need a pre-amp.
