Schertler DYN-V for Violin and Viola Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am one of those people who always tries to find a deal. Why pay this amount for name brand when you can get the generic same much less. I've had to learn that in the case of sound equipment, you get what you pay for (for the most part).
Our fiddler needed a pick up and she didnt want one that effected or modified her fiddle in any way. Didnt want to cut any notches into the bridge, etc. She found this picked and when I saw the price, I was put off. Finally, the band caved in and loaned the money for her to get it.
I will say I'm very impressed. The sound is beautiful, we haven't had issues with feedback. It WILL take a little playing around with to find the right place on YOUR fiddle that sounds best. The first time she put it on in the middle of the body, the sound was very hollow. She's played around and found a great sounding spot.
We also bought a pre-amp just to give it that extra head room. If you have the money, buy this pickup.

Seymour Duncan SA-6 Mag Mic Active Acoustic Guitar Pickup Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a Martin acoustic guitar without a built in amplifier. There are times it's needed and started researching new or used acoustic/electric guitars. A few things happened. 1) Couldn't find a guitar that sounded as good as my Martin 2) The price of a new guitar was beyond what I was willing to pay and 3) I didn't want to have two guitars. So...what to do. Heard about sound hole amps and started researching. Bought a name brand at a guitar store and just didn't like the sound. Research and reviews led me to this Seymour Duncan SA-6. Didn't like the price and no discounts anywhere. Finally decided to give it a try through Amazon to save taxes and free shipping. Have not been disappointed. Easy to install. I did not install permanently to the pick up jack so I can remove it later. It's a little unhandy with the cords from the sound hole, but routed to my guitar strap and not a big deal. I play using a Roland AC-33 Acoustic Amp and like the sound. I am not a professional player and mostly play for my own enjoyment, with friends and occasional coffee house. Perhaps there are better sound hole amps, but for about $225 this works very well for me and I now only need one guitar. There are individual string adjustments that I don't use. I like the two volume adjustment on the sound hole without having to go back to the amp. If you're looking for a sound hole amp, give the Seymour Duncan SA-6 a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
