"The sound of this new guitar pickup is as close to that of a good quality mic
as you've ever heard from a guitar pickup......" The Schatten HFN-S2 Active VT
for Selmer/Macaferri Guitars includes the Schatten HFN Underbridge Pickup, the
Player active endpin jack preamp and a soundhole mounted Volume and Tone
control assembly. The Schatten HFN Active Pickup gives you a sound that is
much more realistic than that of under the saddle pickups and is quite close
to the sound of a good microphone. Along with being simple to install, the
HFN's have excellent feedback rejection and good string to string balance.
There is nothing artificial about the sound of the HFN and the usual
compressed 'quackiness' inherent in under the saddle pickup systems is
noticeably absent in the HFN series. The HFN Pickup The HFN piezo sensing unit
fits inside a guitar on the bridge plate of virtually any steel string guitar,
be it a 12 string or a triple 0. Due its' design, this series of pickups
produces sound much closer to that of a good microphone than any under the
saddle pickup that you've ever heard. The HFN series of pickups utilizes an
elegant combination of wonderful materials: rosewood for its main structure
and arching with a light weight brass shell for its noise shielded piezo unit.
Total weight of the pickup is a very light 0.2 ounces ( 7 grams). It will not
affect the acoustic sound of the instrument when not in use. Each pickup is
hand built and tested to ensure good sound. As well, each pickup is warranted
for a period of two years from date of purchase. Player Endpin Jack Preamp The
HFN Player series of pickups includes a high quality single channel preamp
built right into the endpin jack. This pickup can be used with or without an
external preamp/eq/mixer, or can be plugged directly into your amp or PA
system.
