The extra strong output signal makes it a versatile choice for a variety of instruments. These include instruments made of relatively thick material, such as the sound board of a piano. It is considerably harder to induce vibration on these thicker materials compared to the thin top of a violin, for example. As the piezo crystals react to corpus vibrations, a low surface vibration results in a low signal and a strong vibration creates a strong signal. The frequency range is nearly linear with a slight peak in the upper midrange. This allows for great upfront sound transmission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe Big Shot is available with either an external or internal jack. The external jack comes with a self-adhesive clamp for quick and easy placement on the instrument. The internal jack can be mounted from the outside so no soldering is necessary. The pickup head is attached with a special double-side adhesive film, which is UV resistant to ensure safe adhesion even after years of use. It is ultra-thin and enables the harmonic frequencies to completely pass through to the pickup disk.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"K\u0026K Sound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45409729872087,"sku":"210000056663","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0468\/6148\/4199\/files\/kkbigshot-1.jpg?v=1720722609"}],"url":"https:\/\/rudysmusic.mom\/collections\/k-k-sound.oembed","provider":"Rudy's Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
