Acoustic Pickups?
« on: October 18, 2005, 01:35:47 AM »
Hey Tim, Have you ever thought of making acoustic pickups? I am thinking about getting a 12 string acoustic and wondered if BKP ever thought about an acoutstic pickup.

unlikely. acoustic pickups feature a different construction, i remember reading a thread about this but can remember hardly any of it....

You're right it is different to what we do and to be honest we've got our work cut out with making passive electric guitar pickups.There are some great acoustic pickups out there though.
