I used this on my flat top mandolin and it sounds amazing ! I did the fitting myself after watching some youtube videos, not too hard but you have to be comfortable with using tools like drill and file and most important you have to have a strong heart to be able to drill through your Mandolin (toughest part). I used a supper glue as advised. It's not obvious at all and doesn't ruin your mandolin's sound or appearance in any way.
The quality is excellent and the jack is very sturdy. Used it with an L.R Baggs Preamp and the sound is amazing.
Highly recommend for live gigs.
From my experience this is the best solution for live gigs unless you need a pickup that can be removed and installed on different instruments.
Highly recommend.

Great Pickup
Anonymous 27.02.2016
Very nice sound from this internal pickup. Fitted to my pretty F-style Eastman MD815 I really like the fact that visually you don't know it's there. If your fitting yourself best watch the videos on you tube to decide if your up to the task. If not I'd recommend to get a Luthier to fit. Overall a nice quality product.

Parfait

Un très bon volume de sortie et un son très naturel, pas de larsen, absolument parfait à condition bien sûr d’équaliser sur l’ampli en fonction de ses préférences ce qui ne pose aucun problème parce que toutes les fréquences sont présentes..
Je l’ai fait monter sur une The Loar LM-310F-BRB par mon ami luthier qui me l’avait recommandé, je conseille quand même de le faire monter par un pro pour un montage propre et précis
Un micro à recommander absolument

Great sound and completely hidden
Wooders7 23.08.2022
This pickup is not easy to fit in an F-type mandolin, but it is possible (I got my guitar tech to do it). Once fitted, it is only the endpin jack that gives away its presence.

The pickup produces more than enough signal and a great sound. Remember to run it into a 1Mohm impedance (ideally a pre-amp so that you can apply some EQ) otherwise the sound will be muddy and disappointing. Some tuner/fx pedals have the correct input impedance.

I have tried other piezo pickups and I always come back to K&K. I prefer their passive systems because there is no onboard electronics to affect the sound of my instruments and no extra holes to drill (except for the endpin jack). I can then choose what I use to shape my tone externally. This pickup fits the bill perfectly IMO.

Excellent faithful pickups
Adam4520 13.05.2019
I bought and had these installed in my Eastman MD515 in 2015 and have gigged and recorded with it ever since.

The picked-up sound is extremely faithful to the acoustic instrument and I would recommend this pickup for other players.

One note of caution: heavy pick work will also be picked up and can produce a 'clunk' on notes.

Basic solution to electrify your mandolin
Yabby 10.05.2024
I have several K&K pickups (banjo, gtr). They offer a good quality easy starting point to connect your acoustic instrument to the amps. This mandolin twin is not an exception. Excellent price/quality ratio with some compromises with the sound (headroom, crispyness...), which come always with the amplification.

Very good mandolin pickup
Asha5 03.07.2024
I have K&K pickups in my guitars, and my research suggested their mandolin pickup gave the most realistic sound with the least handling noise. This has proved to be the case. Like all mandolin pickups, it benefits from an EQ cut in the lowest frequencies, but not too much, or you start to lose the tone.
