bouzouki soundhole mounted active humbucker pickup system, with 1/8″ to 1/4″ cable
BZ-1A converts your instrument’s natural, resonant tone to a high-fidelity signal ready for an amp or audio mixer. Neodymium magnets in an active, humbucking design bring a warm, clear, and strong amplified tone with plenty of depth. BZ-1A offers a balanced output level between strings and installs without blocking the soundhole.
– Universal fit to almost any stepped-fingerboard bouzouki: The magnetic part of the pickup was developed to install in practically any bouzouki having a “step”—a flat surface at the end of the fingerboard. The clever design doesn’t block the soundhole of the bouzouki and doesn’t interfere with its resonance.
– Wooden housing: The magnetic element is encased in laminated birch with an elegant and stylish black plastic cap. This lightweight assembly achieves maximum tonal sensitivity.
– Active design: The built-in preamplifier reduces noise and eliminates string grounding. The pre-amp also shapes the tone of the pickup specifically for bouzouki. The pickup requires 2 CR2032 batteries for operation.
– Neodymium magnets: BZ-1A utilizes the power of neodymium magnets to provide a warm, clear, and strong amplified tone with plenty of depth.
– Natural balanced sound: BZ-1A offers a balanced output between strings, and captures and reproduces the natural, resonant tone of the bouzouki.
– Complete installation set: The pickup features a single screw mount, a standard of many bouzouki pickups, and a pre-wired output jack.
