Twin SoundSpot™ Classic
SoundSpots are ultra-sensitive transducer pickups suitable for stringed and non-stringed acoustic and ethnic instruments.
Unlike other “dot-type” transducer pickups, each SoundSpot™ is hand ground to extremely fine tolerances. This process,
along with the selection of materials, renders a pickup with a very thin surface that also maintains its strength and
flexibility. The result is a transducer that is ultra-sensitive to an instrument’s surface vibrations and, therefore,
is extremely natural and warm sounding.
• Ultra-sensitive transducer pickup

• Versions available for most acoustic instruments

Pickup
TWIN SoundSpot Classic
Position
Near the bridge, with one spot for the bass strings and one for the treble strings.
Applying The Pickup
For best results, install the pickups with the metal side facing the instrument’s top, positioning them in the
locations shown in the diagram. Attach the two pickups with double-sided adhesive tape (its sticky film is removable
and, therefore, shouldn’t harm the guitar’s finish). Use tape to hold the two cables against the top to avoid rattling.
Jack
The 1/4" output jack is held on the guitar’s end with a self-adhesive dual-lock hook-and-loop strip.
Usage Tips
For the best sound, use a good amplifier designed for acoustic guitar. Standard guitar amps can also be used,
as well as preamps plugged into a mixing console or P.A. system. For P.A. and recording applications,
a high-quality direct box such
as the D-TAR Solstice or Equinox is suggested.
