Wood-encased piezo sensor
The KNA Pickups DB-1 double bass pickup features a piezo sensor with a lightweight wooden housing. This specification regarding materials and construction adds a clearly defined feature to the technical specifications. According to the description, the sensor’s wooden housing is designed to achieve maximum tonal sensitivity and transmission. It is precisely this focus that makes the sensor particularly appealing to anyone who values sensitive and natural sound reproduction.
In addition, the DB-1 features a passive design. This reproduces the instrument’s natural sound without requiring a battery. This combination of a wood-encased piezo sensor and passive design makes the system particularly straightforward and practical. Anyone looking for a double bass pickup with a clearly defined sound profile and a battery-free design will find this to be a well-rounded solution.
Secure mounting on the bridge and tailpiece
The wood-encased piezo sensor of the KNA DB-1 Double Bass Pickup is installed in the eye of the bridge and held in place by friction. This mounting method is one of the system’s key features and makes the installation process straightforward. In addition, precision-machined shims ensure an optimal fit. It is precisely these details that underscore the model’s clear focus on preserving the instrument.
The 1/4" jack assembly is attached to the tailpiece without causing any damage and secured to the tailpiece eye via a screw-based design. This type of mounting effectively complements the sensor installation and demonstrates that the KNA Pickups DB-1 double bass pickup is designed for a stable yet gentle installation. Anyone looking for a pickup solution that can be installed without invasive modifications will find a precisely described system here.
Complete installation kit for various bridge widths
Another key feature of the KNA Pickups DB-1 double bass pickup is the complete installation kit. The package includes additional, neatly finished shims that allow the sensor to be adapted to narrower bridges.
