Professional Realist Double Bass Transducer Pickup - High-Quality Acoustic Bass Amplification for Live Performances & Studio Recording

The best bass pickup I own! I had my luthier put it on because you need to take off the G string to install and I do not do double bass work at all. Make sure you install the pickup under the foot below the E side, not the G side!!!!! The quarter inch plug goes under the tailpiece. I’d recommend letting your luthier do it and while your at it have them check and or reset the bridge for you. It shouldn’t cost you much, they charged me 60 bucks for pickup install and bridge reset. Anyways, onto the pickup. I play a 3/4 Eastman, primarily bluegrass. I use this pickup into an Aguilar compressor into a 1x12 Markbass combo and the sound will blow your p*$$y off. Sounds good running into the board as well. I used to use a Schatten, which is very similar in terms of sound, but the installation was not nearly as snug as this realist pickup. I’d definitely recommend Schatten as well but the realist gives me comfort with the installation being so snug. 10/10 would recommend!!!!!
