EMG ACS Acoustic Guitar Pickup Black - New


The EMG ACS acoustic soundhole active pickup provides professional-grade amplification for acoustic guitarists seeking authentic tone without feedback issues. This innovative magnetic pickup system features a specialized internal preamp tailored to complement an acoustic guitar's natural frequency response. Perfect for performing musicians who need to maintain their acoustic sound while playing alongside full bands, the EMG ACS delivers exceptional volume and clarity with superior feedback resistance.

Product Overview

Engineered with EMG's renowned precision, the ACS soundhole pickup captures your acoustic guitar's natural voice while offering significantly broader frequency range and lower noise than traditional piezo systems. The carefully designed magnetic pickup element maintains tonal integrity while effectively controlling the feedback that typically plagues amplified acoustics in high-volume settings.

The pickup's sophisticated onboard preamp is specifically tuned to the phase and frequency characteristics that define acoustic guitar tone, preserving the brilliant top-end and full-bodied resonance that players demand. Adjustable pole pieces allow precise customization of string balance and output, ensuring optimal sound tailored to your specific instrument and playing style.

Installation is remarkably straightforward thanks to EMG's exclusive Solderless Install System, featuring comprehensive components including connection cables, end-pin jack, cable keepers, and all necessary mounting hardware. This versatile pickup system has become one of the most popular acoustic amplification solutions on the market due to its exceptional sound quality and user-friendly design.
