Dtar Twin Soundspot NTX Pickup.

The D-TAR Twin Soundspot NTX Pickup is designed specifically to fit inside steel-stringed guitars under the bridge. SoundSpots are ultra-sensitive transducer pickups suitable for stringed and non-stringed acoustic and ethnic instruments.Unlike other dot-type transducers, each SoundSpot piezo crystal pickup is hand ground to extremely fine tolerances. This process, along with the selection of materials, yields a pickup with a very thin surface that can maintain its strength and flexibility. The result is a pickup that is ultra-sensitive to an acoustic guitar's surface vibrations and, therefore, is extremely natural and warm sounding. The TWIN SoundSpot NTX works well with all guitar and keyboard amps, as well as PA systems and recording mixers. For added control over the instrument's tone, use a high-quality preamp.D-TAR - Duncan/Turner Acoustic Research Seymour Duncan and Rick Turner are two legends who spent years working with musicians, perfecting their tone.

A quarter turn of the collar is all you need to lock them in place.The D-TAR Wave-Length acoustic pickup system combines a thin, piezo transducer with an 18V, low-noise preamp. Eighteen volts translates to twice the headroom and dynamic range of a typical 9V system, so you can strum extra hard without experiencing the dreaded piezo "quack."To get its 18V, the Wave-Length requires only 2 standard AA batteries. The secret is a proprietary voltage power booster. In addition, the Wave-Length's pre-amp has 2 adjustable trim pots—1 low-frequency shelving and 1 high-frequency shelving. The result is transparent amplification of the natural timbre of your acoustic guitar with minimal coloration.The Wave-Length volume and tone module's controls are located in your acoustic guitar's soundhole for easy access.

Dtar Sadducer for Steel String Guitars.

The D-TAR Sadducer Under-Saddle Transducer for Steel String acoustic guitar uses 6 discrete piezo crystals, one for each string. Discrete piezo crystals have better string-to-string balance and offer increased responsiveness to your guitar top's vibrations for great tone. The result is a high-output pickup designed for even frequency response. High output response eliminates the need for expensive on-board signal boosting electronics. The D-TAR Sadducer is exceptional for melody players, especially guitarists who play over the entire fingerboard. But perhaps the biggest benefit is that, unlike other piezo pickups, the Sadducer has lower output impedance and does not require a built-in or off-board preamp to boost and smooth the guitar's signal. That means no batteries required. The steel string version is optimized for guitars with string spacing of 2.04" to 2.30 (51.8 to 58.4mm) at the bridge. The Sadducer's thin height and width permits optimal saddle placement in the bridge slot—generally without the need to modify it.
