...don't need a pickup all the time?
The VM Series offers the solution to this problem. A small lightweight sensor adheres to the bridge with a little bit of putty.
These pickups were designed for quick and easy installation and removal and will provide you with a means for amplifying your instrument when you need it. When you don't need a pickup, the VVM can simply be stored away. They come complete and ready to go with no wiring, soldering or other fussing around.
Combines our VVM sensor with our SJA non-invasive low profile 1/4" output jack assembly.
The VVM Std. and VVM Pro. models are designed to be easily installed and just as easily taken off and stored away in your case until the next time you need a pickup. Many players however will leave the jack assembly installed on the instrument and simply remove the pickup sensor from the bridge and stick it to the jack assembly.
Features:
Clean, clear sound reproduction This pickup has been designed to operate properly and sound terrific without the use of a preamp when plugged into any 'normal' amp (guitar amp, bass amp, etc.). As with any pickup, the sound can be further enhanced with an outboard preamp. If you require the added ability to be able to plug directly into a P.A. or mixer then you may wish to add either one of our new Mini Pre belt clipable preamps or one of our Preamp/DI units to your pickup system.
