AER AK15 Plus Dual-Source Acoustic Guitar Pickup System

The AK15 plus is a two source system, the undersaddle piezo crystal pickup is combined with an electret condenser microphone integrated in the endpin pre-amp.

It has been a developing goal to come up with an easy to use, versatile pickup system that captures the true sound of the instrument with a maximum of dynamic range, even if it exceeds the dynamic range of the instrument.

The AK15 plus provides high volumes and impressive punch combined with low noise components for best possible signal to noise ratio.The AK15 plus system can be used with all guitars (steelstring and classic) which allow under saddle pick-up installation with string spacings from 10 to 12.5 mm.

The installation is similar to all under-saddle pickup systems. The instrument does not suffer mechanical stress in use or during installation. There is no soldering necessary.
