Seymour Duncan Woody
Acoustic Guitar Pickup?
I own an acoustic guitar. It is a nice guitar, but I also want an electric. But I figured, why have both if I can make my other one an electroacoustic? So here's my question. Is there a pickup that I could buy and install or attach to my acoustic to have it be able to be plugged into an electric amp and I could adjust the bass, treble, and all that good stuff? Is that what the Seymour duncan woody does?
There are many to choose from. They can get very pricey and I have to warn you that you will not get an electric guitar sound with them. They are designed to reproduce the acoustic sound. Seymour Duncan, Dean Markley, Fishman, Martin all make different models at different price ranges. I use a Dean Markley and a Crate acoustic guitar amp for my Martin D-28. Sounds "OK" but for real use NOTHING beats miking the guitar with a shotgun mike at the soundhole and a omni directional further out from the guitar.
There are a couple of kinds of pickups. One fits into the soundhole and is easily removed when you are not amplified. Kind of a pain in the neck sometimes. But there is one advantage. You do not have to mess around with the setup of your guitar. The other predominiant one is a ribbon pickup that goes under the nut of the bridge on your guitar. Harder to install, and it is a permanent installation. I suggest having a pro do that. Your guitar chord plugs into the strap holder on the back end of your guitar. There are others that stick onto your guitar with some kind of putty. Stay away from those.
Best thing is to try a few at a Guitar Center. You cant try one of the ribbon pickups on your guitar, but you can try one that already has one to give you an idea. Don't be shy about trying them. This is a big decision to make and you should LISTEN to the pickups. Not to people here!
Here's a link to Guitar Center stuff. Good luck.
