Specifications

The Wilson Pickup System for cello has quite a few assets to offer:

  • It gives a realistic, perfect, acoustic sound.
  • It allows each string to be individually volume adjusted by simply rotating the pickup in its mount. It is accurate and completely linear in all registers.
  • It has the same effect when played by pizz and arco.
  • It is connected directly to an amplifier.
  • No pre-amp needed. It is easily built into the bridge as an active part of the cello itself.
  • It’s position close to the strings captures the body signal in the sound production.
  • It has a frequency response of 70 Hz to 30 kHz – and even beyond.

The craftmanship of Wilson Pickups is uncompromised. Each pickup is handmade in Denmark and thoroughly tested for mechanical tolerance, insulating resistance and frequency response.
