With its compact size and low weight, it can be easily mounted on guitar tops for spontaneous gigs or permanently installed in the body of acoustic instruments.\u003cbr\u003eThe new oyster has become a little bit slimmer and achieves an even more balanced sound thanks to the new piezo technology. This makes it the perfect pickup system for guitars, basses, ukuleles, mandolins and other acoustic stringed instruments.\u003cbr\u003eThe Oyster is available in different cable lengths with a 6.35 mm (1\/4″) jack socket or plug, as a single or double pickup, classic nickel-plated or in pure sound brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnique features of the Schaller Oyster Piezo-Pickup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiezo contact pickup: A sensor pickup for retrofitting or easy installation on and in an acoustic stringed instrument.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew balanced piezo sound design, with lifelike and powerful reproduction of the instrument sound, without active circuitry or preamplifiers. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe excellent sound result is achieved by a perfect interaction of membrane and piezo element.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOyster shell material: brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 12 grams per Oyster shell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel finish.

The sound depends very much on the mounting position. Patience is required in finding the right mounting position for a piezo pickup. Each player prefers his or her own “sweet spot”. Even the slightest change in the piezo’s position on the top or in the body will produce different sound results in bass, midrange, treble and volume levels. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiezo transducers are not powerful signal sources due to their physical design, so they are usually sold in guitars with integrated preamps (preamp with equalizer) to compensate the signal loss due to long cable runs and to shape the sound. An additional preamp for acoustic instruments as a floor pedal or a powerful acoustic amplifier, are therefore preferable for optimal signal reproduction \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupplier warehouse item.\u003c\/strong\u003e Please allow 3 business days handling time before dispatch, subject to supplier availability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schaller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46247935148076,"sku":"49020","price":136.3,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2970\/9956\/files\/49020.jpg?v=1790220805","url":"https:\/\/roycemusic.com.au\/products\/schaller-oyster-s-p-single-bug-w-jack-nickel-16050103","provider":"roycemusic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
