Artec PG-607 Under Bridge Saddle Piezo Pickup for 6 & 12-String Acoustic Guitars. This pickup features 6 separate string sensors and is 2mm thick.

The Artec PG pickup series has been specially designed in it's construction to deliver a soft, warm & rich sound. We use a gold plated contact board and a gold plated plug to increase conductivity and reliability. Another key point of our PG pickup series is applying the patent pending design of connection metal pipe between Teflon shielded cable and gold plated plug that enhances the stability and easy installation. It is also a good insulator and provides virtually noiseless acoustic sound.

Piezo Pickup Specifications:

• Length: 55mm
• Width: 2.6mm
• Thickness: 2.0mm
• Plug: 2.5mm Diameter

Artec Piezo Pickups are made by Piezoelectric material - Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) - piezo ceramic that has shown exceptional mechanical and electrical properties with very stable energy conversion efficiency, good temperature stability and uniform sensitivity. They are constructed by individual piezo ceramic sensors for each string to improve string to string balance. Ceramics are coated with the finest material, which supports piezo electric effects and excellent frequency characteristics for deliver natural acoustic sounds.

Each piezo ceramic sensors sit on a Contact board with the suitable string pitch. The contact board is used as a "+" connector because of it's high electric transmitting efficiency foil is used for good shield against electronic interference and easy to be soldered. Ceramic, Contact board and Foil can be firmly fixed together, as the foil is highly extensible and easy for glue with high conductivity. Case made from Bronze and Nickel can greatly transmit electricity and is highly extensible. It works to make good shield and ground connection. The case offers the most stable installation in a saddle slot.

Teflon shielded cable enhances the capability to endure high and low temperature and works greatly for ground connection. Special shielding alloy protects electric interference effectively. It is also good insulator offers excellent conductivity and high frequency characteristics.
