The Barcus Berry 3100 is a high-quality piezo transducer that attaches to the violin's bridge and is held in place by a clamp-on output jack. It is designed to capture the authentic, natural sound of the violin without requiring any permanent modifications to the instrument.

Features

• External Clamp-On Jack: The output jack (where you plug in your 1/4" cable) clamps onto the side of the violin, similar to a chinrest, making it incredibly easy to install and remove.
• Bridge Sensor: The sensor itself is a small, lightweight piezo that fits into the wing of the bridge.
• Natural Sound Reproduction: Engineered to deliver a wide frequency response and excellent string-to-string balance.
• Compatibility: Works perfectly with all types of violins (full size to fractional) and is suitable for all genres, from classical to country-fiddle.
• No Battery Required: This is a passive pickup, meaning the pickup itself does not require power (though using an external preamp is highly recommended for the best tone).
