The Pure Pickup is an award-winning, signature pickup for acoustic guitars. Installed on the guitar’s bridge plate, the Pure Pickup is the the best choice for achieving a rich, natural guitar sound — even without a preamp!
Customers say that it’s the best passive pickup on the market, which means it’s the perfect plug-and-play solution for the musician who wants a warm, full-range signal without worrying about cluttering up their instrument, adjusting onboard electronics, or having to remember to change the battery.
#54105 Pure Mini: 3-head transducer for steel string acoustic guitar
#54103 Pure Classic: 4-head transducer for nylon string acoustic guitar
#54108 Pure 12-String: 3-head transducer for 12-string acoustic guitar. The larger pickup heads produce an extra strong bass response and pronounced midrange that sounds great in 12-string guitars and is a good alternative for guitars with heavy spruce tops and maple bridge plates.
The Pure Pickup’s position on the bridge plate provides the perfect balance of sound, picking up all the strings without sounding harsh or percussive and “listening” to the sound board to amplify the unique characteristics of your guitar. The result is a warm, full-range signal that represents the true character of your guitar.
Pairs well with the passive #54110 K&K Volume Control Add-On. The lightweight thumbwheel control mounts with a peel-and-stick installation to the inner edge of the soundhole. It does not require a battery and easily allows you to turn the pickup volume down or off.
For players who want more control over their signal, or need to achieve high gain before feedback, we recommend the #54302 Pure Preamp or #54300 Pure XLR Preamp.
Pure Mini: Direct installation with superglue gel is required for optimum performance but the system can be carefully removed without damage to your guitar (you may damage the pickup though). This pickup system will fit all standard steel string acoustic guitars.
