Schatten Design : Autoharp, Celtic & Pedal Harp & Upright Bass Pickups
 Product Code  Description
SDAD01 Schatten Autoharp Pickup

The AD-01 is a powerful, low profile pickup that was specifically designed for the autoharp. The pickup sensor attaches quickly and easily using the supplied double sided tape and the output jack mounts from a supplied hanging clip. The pickup is non-invasive and may be mounted to an instrument without damage to the instrument.

The AD-01 is a low profile pickup and is only 1/4" high. It can be mounted on the soundboard of the instrument right under the strings if there is enough clearance. Or it may be mounted on the underside of the top or on the inside back or outside back of the instrument depending upon access and sound quality. The pickup comes complete and ready to use. It is prewired to a 1/4" output jack that is easily mounted to the string anchor block with the supplied clip and small screw.


SDCH3A Schatten Celtic Harp PU w/preamp

Introduced in April 2006, our CH-3 Artist pickup system is designed to work flawlessly on both Celtic harps and Pedal harps. Complete with its' own integrated preamp, this pickup delivers full, rich sound quality and ease of installation in one neat package.
CH-3 Artist Harp Pickup System
This pickup system is completely non-invasive as there are no holes to drill and no modification is required to the instrument to install this pickup. The piezo sensing unit is a further development of our HFN series of pickups and combines our Artist preamp with a revolutionary piezo design in soundboard mounted transducers. Simply put, what you get out of this pickup system is the exact sound of your harp......it allows your harp to sound just like you know it sounds: fully acoustic, tonaly open, and warm.


SDUB03 Schatten Upright Bass-03 PU

The UB-03 is a proven performer. It is an impressive blend of ease of installation and unparalleled sound quality.

The UB-03 Std., which is about the size of an American silver dollar, attaches right to the face of the bridge with a strong double sided sticky tape that we supply. The pickup now comes complete and prewired to a rosewood output jack assembly with a 1/4" output jack. The jack assembly simply clamps through the strings just above the tailpiece.

Installation of the pickup and jack assembly takes about 2 minutes. The system may be left in place or may be removed and reinstalled anytime you need it. The pickup has excellent volume and sounds equally good whether bowed or plucked.

This pickup has been designed to operate properly and sound terrific without the use of a preamp when plugged into any 'normal' bass amp. If you require the added ability to be able to plug directly into a P.A. or mixer then you may wish to add one of our Preamp/DI units to your pickup system.

The unique design of the pickup and it's placement insures that it remains feed back free while being able to generate impressively high output and clean clear sound. It does not alter the acoustic sound of the bass.


SDB10P Schatten Upright Bass Passive PU

With the passive version, a rosewood bodied jack assembly is provided that simply clamps between the strings (just above the tailpiece). We provide the pickup in passive format for those players that already have a quality outboard preamp and wish to continue to use it.
