K&K Sound Big Shot Single-Head Piezo Pickup, Internal Jack

This top performance, single-head, piezo transducer was specially designed for instruments with low mechanical resonance. These include instruments made of relatively thick material, such as the sound board of a piano. It is considerably harder to induce vibration on these thicker materials compared to the thin top of a violin, for example. As the piezo crystals react to vibrations, a low surface vibration results in a low signal and a strong vibration creates a strong signal.

The Big Shot is a universal and powerful pickup for a wide variety of instruments. Its extra strong output signal makes it even more versatile. The frequency range is nearly linear, with a slight peak in the upper midrange. This allows for great, upfront sound transmission.

The pickup head is attached with a special, double-sided adhesive film, which is UV resistant to ensure safe adhesion even after years of use. It is ultra-thin and enables the harmonic frequencies to completely pass through to the pickup disk.
