Schatten UB-03 Upright Bass Pickup

The UB-03 Std., which is about the size of a silver dollar, attaches right to the face of the bridge with a strong double sided sticky tape that we supply. The pickup now comes complete and prewired to a rosewood output jack assembly with a 1/4" output jack. The jack assembly simply clamps through the strings just above the tailpiece.

Installation of the pickup and jack assembly takes about 2 minutes. The system may be left in place or may be removed and reinstalled anytime you need it. The pickup has excellent volume and sounds equally good whether bowed or plucked.

This pickup has been designed to operate properly and sound terrific without the use of a preamp when plugged into any 'normal' bass amp. If you require the added ability to be able to plug directly into a P.A. or mixer then you may wish to add a Schatten Preamp/DI unit to your pickup system.

The unique design of the pickup and it's placement insures that it remains feed back free while being able to generate impressively high output and clean clear sound. It does not alter the acoustic sound of the bass.
