    • Best pickup I've used for jazz
Style: Upright Bass Pickup
I'm a jazz bass player and I have tried several pickups for my upright bass and this one was definitely my favorite by far. It has one of the most ideal tones for jazz that I've come across as well as working well for playing with a bow.

    • Quality product
Style: Upright Bass Pickup
Very easy to install, no tools needed and it took me less than 5 minutes. Make sure to leave a little space between the strings and the pickups (about 3mm seems to be enough) and you'll get great clarity and a full range off of each string. So far I've used it both direct into amps and through a pre-amp (Sansamp DI), both work pretty well but, because it gets the full range, you'll definitely want some way to tweak your sound. A little bit of that tweaking will quickly get you from a smooth big band feel to a rockabilly sound. Most important to me is very low noise, even with the treble turned well up I didn't need a noise gate. This item does exactly what it's supposed to do and a great job of it. Simple, zero maintenance, unobtrusive, and great sound, what more can you ask for. ... show more

    • not at all worth the money
Style: Banjo Pickup
I got this Banjo pick up in August 2024 for my birthday and it has been nothing but trouble. The wiring that connects to the jack constantly shorts out and stops working. I've had a luthier install it and then fix it and within a week it did it again. On top of that, it doesn't even work well with my banjo, It basically only picks up the 3rd and 4th strings which drown out any of the other strings. It sounded like garbage the one time i played it live and sounds like garbage in the recording studio . Considering I've owned it 6 weeks, used it once and in the first week it was installed and it crapped out...I'd love to get my money back. Needless to say, don't bother. I've used the KNA pickup on 3 different banjos and it works well. Sounds good recording and their customer service and tech support is better. ... show more

    • Authentically captures the natural sound of my banjo
Style: Banjo Pickup
This pickup authentically reproduces the sound of my Flatiron Sweetgrass five-string banjo without making it sound like an electric guitar. It's nice to hear the banjo amplified and stay true to its sound. There are no installation instructions included in the box. You need to go to Fishman's website and search for banjo pickups. The installation instructions there are sufficient, although they do not exactly replicate the hardware that comes with the pickup. You will NEED a soldering iron to finish the installation. In Fishman's defense, they do suggest a professional installation. All in all, I am happy with the finished product. ... show more

    • Amazon Backed the product
Style: Banjo Pickup
When I gave the Fishman pickup to my luthier, he installed it and the unit did not work!!! Fishman told us to return it to the retailer, which I did following a phone call to Amazon. They sent me a new one immediately and gave me a shipping label to return the non working one, which I was real happy about. The pickup sounds great!! Definitely picks up the "banjo" sound which has been confirmed by several listeners, while playing out. I like it so much I bought a second one to replace an older pickup in another banjo. Pick on !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ... show more

    • Bracket does not fit Gold Tone OB-3 Twanger.
Style: Banjo Pickup
This is by far the best sounding banjo pickup that I have heard in person. However, mounting it was a complete nightmare that took me nearly 8 hours and 4 trips to a hardware store. The offset washers that come with it, along with the curved bracket will not fit a Gold Tone OB-3 banjo. I would definitely buy this pickup again. But, knowing what I know now, I would have ordered the jack bracket from Gold Tone that fits their SMP+ pickup model. Talking to an experienced banjo player, I found out that you cannot replace the jack itself with a Gold Tone jack, because it will drain the battery really fast. The bracket that mounts the Gold Tone pickup jack looks like it would fit the Fishman jack perfectly, so all you would need from Gold Tone is the bracket. Without having a proper bracket, I had to improvise by stacking different sizes of washers, and my end result is still not ideal. I was also told by a luthier that he has had to resort to using zip ties to make this fit a Gold Tone banjo. ... show more

    • This Pickup is for 5 STRING BANJOS ONLY
Style: Banjo Pickup
Fishman pickups and amplifiers are the best acoustic instrument accoutrements on the market. However this particular product/ Pickup application can BE VERY MISLEADING. I have a GOLD TONE GT 6-Six string banjo and was attempting to upgrade its pickup system to make the banjo more PA system friendly. My luthier informed me that this pickup, ADVERTISED AS ACCOMMODATING AND COMPATIBLE WITH ALL OPEN AND RESONATOR STYLE BANJO'S, Could not be installed in my Banjo without massive modifications. I sent this pickup back to Amazon to return to Fishman. So please be informed if you have a six string Banjo the only Pickup that will work is the Goldtone magnetic wide width, no preamp style pickup. I reiterate. THIS PICKUP IS FOR 5 STRING BANJO'S ONLY !!!!!! ... show more
