Review: Excellent when coupled with a pre-amp - I've got 30 years gigging and recording experience and have used many different after-market pickups in that time. This is one of the best, I have a lovely fully acoustic with crisp clear tones that I needed to electrify for small gigs. I didn't want anything that would require permanent mods. This fitted in easily, no need to slacken the strings, and it clamps into place tightly but without damaging the finish. The cable is long enough that it can reach my pedalboard and give me freedom to move around. I'm fine with it being a male jack rather than female so unlike others I have no intention of chopping and replacing the terminal. It's passive, which means 2 things - it requires no batteries but will also have lower output as a result. Those reviewers who are expecting the same volume output as an active / amplified pickup are just being unrealistic. You just need a decent pre-amp for live use. I run this through the excellent and inexpensive SONICAKE A Factory Acoustic Analog Preamp. This helps boost the signal but also gives some control over EQ shaping and it sounds awesome through my PA. The only reason I've given 4 starts not 5 for the sound it because you can get pickups that faithfully represent the exact tone and nuance of your guitar, but these cost a fortune and are generally only needed by the pro's who's tone is their signature. This gives me everything I need. Unlike some other pickups I've had it's also quiet and doesn't pickup unwanted handling noise from the guitar body. This is a very capable and solid bit of kit. Review: Good clear sound - Good clear sound. Easy to fit. Although there's a long lead to reach an amp, it's not difficult to fit a plug in the side of a guitar. ## Features - Neodymium magnet structure for exceptional string balance and sparkling acoustic clarity - Low profile, high-impedance design needs no battery - Easy installation with no alteration, plug and play right out of the box - Excellent string-to-string balance and acoustic clarity - Fits in soundholes as small as 3-7/8″ (98.5 mm) diameter ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Product Dimensions | 19.56 x 14.1 x 6.1 cm; 181.44 g | | Item model number | PRONEOD01 | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Acoustic Guitar | | Signal Format | Analog | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Material Type | Neodymium | | Country Produced In | USA | | Power Source | Manual operation | | Voltage | 240 Volts | | Item Weight | 181 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** FISHMAN - **Connectivity technology:** Auxiliary - **Included components:** Pickup body - **Special feature:** This value-priced cousin of the Rare Earth pickup shares the same neodymium magnet structure for exceptional string balance and sparkling acoustic clarity.

This is the same as the Neo-D single coil so no need to install through the body of the guitar. best wishes. mark **Q: does this pickup have a volume control,because the product picture,says it does?** A: No volume control. Comes with a permanently attached cable for connecting to an amp or pedal or whatever.I was afraid of standing on the cable and ripping it out, so I fitted an end pin socket so I can use a standard cable. **Q: Will this pick up percussive sounds such as hitting the body of the guitar?** A: I would not think so,but,a Fishman soundhole blend pickup has a mike in it which would pick up percussive sounds as would an LR Baggs M1 active body sensetive one.Both of these are much more expensive though. **Q: Does it have an end pin jack socket which is mounted through the body of the guitar and acts as the strap button too?** A: No,it does not. It comes with a long cable with a 1/4 "" jack on the end.You can store the cable in the guitar when not in use.You must wrap the cable around the strap button to stop it catching when in use.This makes it removable and transferable to any other guitar.You can have it permanently installed if you wish with an end pin jack as I have done previously.If you do not feel comfortable doing that get a repair man to do it for you. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent when coupled with a pre-amp *by T***K on 24 May 2024* I've got 30 years gigging and recording experience and have used many different after-market pickups in that time.

Although there's a long lead to reach an amp, it's not difficult to fit a plug in the side of a guitar. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good vfm - works fine *by B***N on 12 February 2025* Fits easily - you just loosen it both sides then slip under the strings and tighten up - needs a Phillips screwdriver. I’m pretty impressed with the sound - I’ve tried i5 through to 20 w amps - was a bit thin through a guitar amp but sounded better through a bass amp.
