The Big Island Spot is an internal single-head pickup
designed for the Ukulele. Installation is quick and
easy. The pickup has a strong output signal and works
well even without a preamp.
Please keep in mind when playing without a preamp,
the result depends somewhat on the quality and type
of the amplification equipment. For more tone
control, the external K&K Pure Preamp would be a
great choice with its clean musical EQ and small size.
Be prepared to cut some treble on your amp or
preamp with this pickup to achieve the best possible
tone.
INSTALLATION
1.
Drill the endpin hole. You should use a designated
endpin reamer tool. If you do not have one, please
let a skilled luthier do this work.
2.
Loosen the stings and spread them apart with a
piece of rope or with masking tape.
3.
Check if you can reach the desired location in
front of the bridge plate with your index or middle
finger. Use your left or right hand, whichever feels
most comfortable. Get a feel for the location of the
braces, the bridge plate, etc.
