Great Place to Start

Eoin H. 25.07.2013

This pickup was a godsend for me. Purchasing my acoustic guitar initially (Walden) I purposefully chose one without an inbuilt pickup. My previous guitar had a pickup already installed, and sounded wonderful plugged in, but not so hot on its own. I thought I might reverse this effect, and am very happy with the results. However, as a young guitar player I knew not the hazards associated with micing a guitar in a live situation. I soon learned that if the issue wasn't horrible feedback, it was atrocious sound, or ignorant "sound engineers." I knew I was in need of a pickup system.

It was easy to install after I had loosened the string I rarely remove it, but when I do it is a bit tricky. After a few months pf having a wire trailing out of my guitar I just took it to my local repair shop and got him to run it through the body of my guitar. The sound is very alright. I imagine a decent preamp would liven it up a bit, but plugged straight it it lacks a certain.... ooomph. Low frequencies aren;t especially strong. I suppose you get what you pay for though and at the end of the day it's ten times better than fiddling around with microphones.

Artec speak in

Jah, I bought the Artec MSP-50
Somehow could say that this product reminds me too much, the old 80s tones
I really did not expect much of a product so cheap. It is a very easy product to install the only problem for me is that there came with no instruction. the packaging came with two small pieces that to me would be something like braces or adapters and I really don't know how I set it, well I did the installation and it worked really well.

It's okay..

I bought this pickup to replace the one in my Fender acoustic as it was awful.

It's alright and installation was easy, the only thing I would say is that the sound isn't the clearest and sometimes the jack can crackle.

Other than that, it does the job!

Very good pickup for the price

Although I prefer to use the Fishman Rare Earth equivalent for customers needing to make high quality recordings, the Artec is very good for general gigging purposes if you can't afford the Fishman
