Mounts and removes without marring or damaging instrument finish. A great accessory for anyone wanting or needing to amplify the instrument through any amp, pedal, or other filter. It will be useful on gigs and to just have fun with experimenting with electronics I use with my guitar which is now possible with my ukes and not requiring drilling holes, running wires, and tightening bolts and screws, or having to adjust bridges. Probably works well on all size ukes and other acoustic instruments. Without question -- WORTH HAVINGDr. JWG ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I broke it and it still works! *by on Reviewed in the United States January 30, 2025* I have used the KNA pickups on a couple of my ukuleles, and I really enjoy the quality that they provide, as well as the easy install. The size of a contact pick up is really important - you don’t want your hand to hit it while you’re playing, which can create a lot of unnecessary noise.The price on this item is just right, not too expensive, and definitely not a cheap flimsy item. It fits onto any acoustic instrument, though I’ve only tried it on Ukulele.It uses a contact putty, which I’ve never had an issue with, but for some reason with this one, I was having trouble getting it to stick (it’s fine now) and I pressed a little hard, and cracked the device a little bit in the process, before I had ever used it. My heart sank because I felt so stupid, and I know I love these pick ups!Upon using it, no issues! I didn’t break it nearly to the point I thought I had, and don’t have any issues plugging in the cable to use it.A great option for any acoustic instrument with no electric capability, highly recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent, sweet sound.. no noise *by on Reviewed in the United States April 19, 2025* i have a few different Pickups i use for different purposes. They are Guitar pickups that i sometimes would put on my M'Biras (Kalimba like instruments). But i always hard a little hum in the background with them.. if i tried plugging it into an amp there would be howling feedback..i wanted to record the sound on one of my M'Biras, and the humming sound could not be removed without also removing the quality of the instrument's sound.. So i went hunting.. & then remembered i already have the KNA NG-1 Piezo Pickup on my Nylon String Guitar.. Then i saw this KNA UP-2 and thought if its as good as the one i already have.. then problem solved.. i bought it.. and it's levels above what i was using on my M'Biras before. Putting the putty on as an adhesive helps to catch the vibrations, with no hum or howling feedback.. and this KNA UP-2 also has a volume control on it.. so you can decrease or increase the volume and add gain with whatever you plug it into.. it's damn near perfect.. ## Frequently Bought Together - KNA UP-2 Universal Stick-On Piezo Pickup – Natural Acoustic Tone for Guitar, Uke, Drums, Percussion, Volume Control, No-Battery, No-Mod Installation, Compatible with Nearly All Acoustic Instruments - Tisino 1/4 to 3.5mm Adapter, 1/4" Female to 1/8" Male Stereo Audio Adapter for Headphone, Amplifiers, Guitar, Amp etc. - 1ft/30cm --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/74884246-kna-up-2-universal-piezo-pickup-for-guitar-ukulele-drums](https://www.desertcart.us/products/74884246-kna-up-2-universal-piezo-pickup-for-guitar-ukulele-drums) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
