Hi Nico, i have a trance audio amulet system(formerly FRAP) which is almost specially design for this purpose,Michael Hedges used it as far as i know.2 lenses,one for the bass strings and the other for the treble strings,stereo out independent of each other so you can add efx on the treble strings and keep the bass strings clean.The system is the most natural and responsive ive ever heard,very hi quality but expensive and only found in the U.S. The drawback with this system is that you need their special cable and preamp otherwise you are out of luck.So ive recently installed the old B-band system additionally which has a UST and AST and can be runed separately thorugh a stereo Y cable direclty into the mixing board.Unfortunately B-Band has taken a step backwards and came up with a new one which has more output but is mono only and there is no way of running them separately.I guess the system was too complicated and they have sold to mono mass production.They dont make them anymore but you might still find it in guitar shops or ebay.B-Band sounds really nice and the ability to run them separately is always the best for looping! a cheaper option is the korean belcat transducer which you just stick on the guitar wherever you want it, dont let the price lure you i know professional guitarrists who are using them! but as far as i know you will need a preamp since they are low output,but their price compensates for it check them out http://www.tranceaudio.com/ http://www.b-band.com/ http://www.gremlinmusic.co.uk/belcat.htm cheers Luis --- nico spahni <nicosp@gmx.net> wrote: > I've been following this discussion and would like > to find out more about acoustic (steel string) > guitars and pick-up systems that are particularly > suited for that purpose, that is guitars that > respond well to percussive treatment. > > Nico > -- > Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?
