Acoustic mic setup Fishman Ellipse blend and K&K

[fender83]

Hi everyone

Im currently working on a new setup for my acoustic mics and are wondering about a few things. On one of my guitars I have an Fishman Ellipse Matrix Blend. On this guitar I want keep the fishman as is. Then I have a new K&K pure mini that Im going to installon on a separate pin output jack from the gutar. I will have to drill a new hole for this but that is fine. Last I will set a Sunrise pickup in the sound hole. My question is. I do not want to drill more holes so I will replace on jack with a sterio out. Should I connect the fishman and the sunrise on a that stereo outlet jack or the sunrise and the k&K on a stereo outlet jack. The reson I am asking is that I am tryed to connect the fishman and the sunrise pickup on a stereo jack outlet and the fishman worked fine but I am getting a hum noice on the Sunrise. Im wondering if the fishman is causing this?

If anyone as any idea let me know.

Thanks allot

Try the sunrise alone, then check for hum. Or wire the sunrise directly. Pay attention to the polarity as well. If the sunrise is a single coil, you will deal with hum at times, this is typical of single coil pickups. Good luck

A Sunrise and a K & K will work on a TRS jack. I ran a guitar like that for quite a while. I liked the combination.

I was running it through a Strawberry Blonde amp which would take a single TRS input and split it to two channels, which was pretty cool. I didn't have to use a split cable. This allowed me to use a TRS cable and get both pickups or a regular cable and get only one pickup. I think I'm remembering this correctly. It was 10 years or so ago.
