sounds great
surprisingly good for a purely passive pickup, works great with my thomann 3/4 bass.

Surprisingly good
The sound from this pickup is remarkably good. I’ve gigged with it playing through a tonedexter wavemap/preamp into house PA systems where it sounds good and quite acoustic violinish I’m told though part of that is down to the tonedexter. Into an LR Baggs di it’s ok. No tendency to feedback. It does need careful fitting to the bridge. So pleased I bought 2 more, one for my viola and one for my second fiddle.

Good sound
Great pickup but too fat for the bridge unless you sand it. I place it in f hole instead and seems to work fine.

Superb.
Superb pic up for my 200 year old cello. Easily fitted, and stable once in place.Perfect for when I’m playing in public, plugging it directly into my Bose amp…no need for any additional pedals. Sound is far better than the much more expensive pic ups I’ve tried in the past. Thank you.

Well worth the purchase!
Great sound for the price! The quality of sound w/this pickup is unbeatable, like other reviewers I too think the end bit that sticks out would be much better if it faced down and not up, but other than that top quality output and easy to install w/no damage to instrument. Will be buying KNA product again for my guitar. Lead isn’t the greatest but not awful either. Well worth the purchase!

Excellent pickup
I have amplified many acoustic instruments. Guitar, double bass and violin. This is a very good natural sounding pick at a very good price. I have paid many times the price for other pickups that didn’t sound as good. Also very easy to fit.

Great in principle but too much sanding required on my bridge
I really wanted this to work. It seems well thought out. I tried some sanding of my violin bridge but it was still too broad to fit. I really don't want to go too far since the violin is set up perfectly at the moment. So I and reluctantly returning the item as too large to fit.

Poor performance
It's about as good as a cheap stick-on transduced mic i.e. pretty poor. Muffled toneless distorted response.Fitting it doesn't alter the bridge height as some have claimed.The lead that came with mine faulty too, but luckily I had a spare.I've now taken it off and fitted a proper under-the-saddle piezo pick-up.KNA consigned to the drawer of "looked like a good idea gadgets."
