JJBELECTRONICS PPS-200P ACOUSTIC GUITAR PICKUP 4 PREAMP

Description: To avoid any confusion, these are intended to be a replacement for under-saddle piezos in guitars that are already equipped with an onboard preamp.

All of our products are handcrafted inthe USA, who elsecan say that? Every purchase will be shipped within one business day! Product description; NEW FROM JJB ELECTRONICSCOMES PPS-200P! Please note that these are not compatible with most preamps that Fishman has on the market. These like to see an input impedance of around 4Mohm or less. 1Mohm is ideal. Fishman preamps are rated anywhere from 10 to 20 times too high. Please research the specs of the preamp that you intend to connect this to before ordering. This system utilizes a dual piezo configuration for a crisp sound. The dual piezo configuration offers a few advantages over single piezo systems. Having two piezo’s affords you the opportunity to place them at two different points on the soundboard thus resulting in an improved dynamic range due to the fact that they transmit the resonance found at more than one point. These special surface transducers are under less pressure than under saddle pickups thus decreasing the likelihood of them transmitting a percussive or harsh sound. Each piezo is designed to pick up the resonance found in a significant amount of the soundboard. These do not "fade"or distort at high volume or with high-power systems. The highs are crystal clear while the lows are, what they should be, low! They are very responsive. This particular system is fitted with a premium 2.5mm plug for easy connectivity to your existing on-board preamp. We have recently upgraded the build quality of this system, thus the reason for the slight price increase. Not to mention the ever-increasing costs associated with supplies and shipping, etc. It is the perfect replacement for your under-saddle pickup! This pickup configuration is offered in several high end guitars. All of our products feature quality components and construction. These will work great in a variety of instruments.Mandolins,ukulele’s, bass guitars, banjo’s, violins, dobro’s, dulcimers, stompboxes,etc. The possibilities are endless! These, like all of our systems, can be installed in about 15 minutes! They are a very simple and inexpensive means of turning your acoustic instruments in to acoustic electric. Please don’t let the price fool you though! Read on….. Customization; Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any special requests. We are capable of building endless variations of any configuration that we offer. We can usually customize cable lengths free of charge. Additional piezo’s can be added to any system purchased for a fee of $5.00 each.

Please feel free to google our products.You can read customer testimony for days! There are several discussions about these in forums, blogs, etc. Here is what a few of our customers have to say; Hi,Jessie-just a note to tell you how happy I am with the pickups I've bought from you. I installed the latest one in a 20-odd year old Fender Concord acoustic of my sister's, and it actually sounds better than my more expensive guitar in which I installed a Shadow (marketed by Gibson)top-sensing piezo 2 years ago. And it was less than half the price! I don't know how you do it, but keep it up-you're on my favorites list. I just wanted to let you know I received my order (PPS200)today. Thank you!!! I had an old Alvarez guitar that didn't have a pickup but sounded great by itself. Now I can plug it in and it doesn't lose any of its great acoustic sound. Great product!!!It is so simple to install too. Anyway just wanted to let you know how much I like your product and look forward to doing more business with you in the future. Thanks A Very Satisfied Customer, Randal Richards Dear Jessie, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your pickups and what they have done for my guitars. Your pickups are by far the best on the market and they are the only ones that I use on all of my guitars. They are very much a part of the Red Dog sound that cannot be achieved any import or domestic pickups available on the market. My customers are proud to know that your pickups are both completely hand-wired and made in America. In today’s changing times, our economy needs more qualified craftsman such as yourself and your product is invaluable to the music industry. Through the good times and the bad you have been there for me and made every single pickup as if it was your most important one and I firmly believe it’s the reason for my company’s success. You are the backbone of Red Dog Guitars and because my guitars are built around your pickups is the reason my guitars are so great. I have tried everything on the market from Mighty Mite to K&K,all the way up to overpriced Fishman and nothing delivers such a full range in both sound and signal. I look forward to many more years of both a close friendship and product alliance as I’m in firm belief that your pickups are the BEST! John McNair,Red Dog Guitars 2006 Hi Jesse, just writing to let you know how i got on with your Prestige,self-fit pick-up. I followed the instructions from your web site. Very easy to follow and understand... It took now time at all! I used a 13mm wood bit, on a very slow speed, and Super Glue Gel. It was sooo simple! The sound is just superb... can't believe how effective it is. I'm running my guitar through a Fender BXR 25 Bass practice amp... I'm a bass player, what can i say. I like full bassy sound! It sounds quite stunning! I'm very very surprised! You're producing top quality equipment at budget prices! The rock box compliments the over all very well. I love my 'cheapo' Samick 12 string and now it sounds even better! WOW! In this time of economic depression it's really great to find a success story... and boy should you be successful! You really are producing a great product at an unbelievable price! I may just purchase a few more from you as future protection against your success and obvious price hike! LOL! Thank you Jessie, you Rock! Gary 'Mitch' Mitchell I wanted to say thanks for the great service! I used the pickup last night at a show and it sounded amazing. It was very natural and it had plenty of output. You do a hell of a job, this is my 3rd pickup I have bought from you and I will be back for more. Thanks again! Adam Townsend Hi Jessie, I received my pickup in the mail today and I am absolutely thrilled with it. The quality is outstanding. The price was incredible and the customer support that you gave was first rate and I can't compliment you enough for that. You just don't find that these days. I will be sure to tell my musician friends about your web site and hope that I can send some business your way. I don't spend much money but if the need arises I will certainly be a repeat customer. Let me reiterate; I am absolutely thrilled with my purchase and I mean THRILLED! Can't thank you enough. I really appreciate the price to quality ratio. I almost feel guilty. :) I am pretty financially deficient so it really means a lot to me. Sorry to ramble but I'm really impressed. Thanks again, Jeff Jessie, I just wanted to thank you again and to let potential customers know what an honest and straight-forward business person you are. I had a slight problem with an acoustic pick-up that I purchased off the E-Bay site and it was solved quickly and over and above satisfaction. Looking forward to dealing with you in the future. Thanks! Clell (Ohio) Recieved my PPS-200 today. Took all of 1 hour to install. I made a cardstock jig , using the two outside peg holes as reference, marking string and saddle placement, then cut to fit the internal bracing. I used some packing tape rolled to hold the piezo's in place (after some thought as to where I really wanted to place the transducers) and a couple of thin strips of tape to hold the transducers so the wires would be out of the way of the peg holes. I was able to glue both piezo's in place at the same time, with relative confidence that they were where I wanted them. Then only minor panic as I drilled a hole through the side of my Jasmine (not a bad guitar for a cheap one). New strings, a quick tune, and POW! A nice acoustic sound, (and passive to boot) very close to what my guitar sounds like unamplified, with flat EQ, even with my early 80's Peavey TKO 80 I keep plugged in as a practice amp. I have nice, even output on all strings (just a tad weak on the high E, should have shifted just a tiny bit to that side, but this is being very critical as to my installation) Thanks for being honest about your products. I was totally impressed with the true sound, and for a fraction of the price of the other,bigger names. Eleven stars for good sound and incredible price. James T Martin I have done a few local craft fairs with my Sweet Baby RayCigar Box Guitars with your pickups and people are amazed at the sound they produce. Since I switched to your pickups the difference is like night and day. Thanks again. Ray Dear Jessie I got the three head pick-ups and have fitted it/them to my guitar, I have taken some pics (as the guitar is very unusual) and will send them to you when I am able. The guitar is a Skylark acoustic with what is called a double funnel construction. That is, it has no soundhole but is open as the neck/cutaways and incorporates high grade bracing. The body also incorporates a built in baffle which enhances bass response and gives a very big sound. The sound is magic with the pickups. Ian M Hi Jessie,Just wanted you to know that I installed the pickups last night and strung her back up today. I'm very impressed!. Great sound,easy install and exactly what I was looking for. You have definitely hit my favorite sellers list. Thanks for all of the advise and guidance. The project worked out great. I'm considering doing the same thing to my 12 string Seagull(straight acoustic) that I've had for so many years. You gave me a great product for my use at a great price and invaluable advise..Thanks..David I really wanted to let you know that I finally got some time to really play and have semi-permanently affixed the original single I got from you to my viola. Man, this pickup is cool! I can't believe the gain you get from your design. I don't even need a preamp. In fact, there is so much gain that I am tweaking my settings to compensate for feedback. Yours just sounds so much better than the other pickups I have gotten. I can tell you that once I decide which instruments I want to permanently electrify, I will probably get a couple of more units. You can count on the fact that I am telling everybody I know who would like to add a pickup to their acoustic instruments, that they should contact you. Way to go! I need to stock up so I have some extras when you get famous and have to start charging $100 a piece for them. :-) I now have an incredible, newly upgraded electric mandolin that sounds awesome. It is as good or better than an original equipment electric mandolin. Thanks again,Brian Surks Hi, Jessie, I have been remiss on getting some sort of feedback to you other than the one-liners allowed me. I have gotten several of your products and, obviously, that should speak quite well of them, but there's more than that. I am very impressed with them. Great output and clarity. I have not had ANY feedback problems with them (and I have cranked them up!). I have installed most in acoustic Drednoughts. I have had MANY nice comments about the sound of my guitars. After some experimentation I have a couple, three, different places I have mounted them with great satisfaction in thetonal reproduction of the guitars. I've referred them to somefriends here and installed a couple in other people's guitars.Everyone is quite impressed. I still have a couple more guitars I haven't installed pickups in, yet. They wil probably get yours. Kudosto you on your great products. They are cleanly made, and well- constructed. Many thanks to you!! Lee Muller chickenpicker Wanted to express my thanks for one amazing pickup. Been out of town and returned to pickup waiting for me. Thanks for going out of your way to make it right for me. This will work great for me on my mandos. It's by far much better than I expected. Iwas blown away on how good it sounds. So much so I just ordered another external pickup. No modifications on this one. Just as it is, going on my Martin. Left positive feedback. I'm very glad I stumbled on your auction. Thanks! JOHN AMANN Thank you for your recent advice on the dual piezo pickup for my Admira spanish guitar. I have had the pickup fitted for a week now and just wanted to say a big thank you for such a great product. I have been playing acoustic guitars for 30+years and have some expensive systems fitted to other guitars but these pickups sound just as good. On the nylon strung guitarthe sound is so natural and full and there is no noise pickup fromthe rest of the soundboard.(on some transducers you get the sound of your sleeve rubbing on the guitar). I will be ordering some more of these to replace some under-saddle piezo's in the near future. Only took me about 10 minutes to fit too. Thanks very much, John Wastnidge Thanks a lot! This will be my 3rd guitar powered by JJB transducers. I really like what you guys are doing with your company. I play in a semi-pro working band and have at least some influence locally on musician opinion, and I have been talking JJB up in the last year or so as a solid new companywith a great products at very musician-friendly prices. Thanks so much! Dan Liechty Your dual transducers are a great link between mybeloved Guild that I've had for 31 years, and my Fender amp. Iwanted a true acoustic sound and I love it. Thanks for your greatproduct and service. Charlie Baker Received the pickup today. I tried it on a dulcimer and am pleased with the results. I am a dulcimer builder and am considering incorporating a pickup into some of them. Ibelieve your product is what I have been looking for as the acoustic sound is not altered.
