K&K PWM in classical guitar

hann · #1 04-20-2009, 10:43 PM

My friend wants me to install a K&K on his classical... however, I did not order in any of the K&K pure western classics...

would the standard PWM suffice?

also, the manual seems so different from the PWM manual.. seems classical guitars have some centre bracing under the bridge?

Any suggestions regarding this issue?

thanks folks!

because of the fan bracing you need four heads in a classical rather than the three in the PWM.

yeah i realized the bracing is so different... i was gonna wonder what'd happen if i just had 2 on one side and 1 on the other side..

wud it be very imbalanced... or just take out 1 and use 1 on each side instead...

I'd say an email to Dieter (at K&K) is in order. He's always been "right there" with any tech inquiries for me.

I agree with Ed, Dieter was great help with the pickup for my 8 string. I had a problem with having more strings to cover than normal. With Dieter's help we decided to go with the K&K Pure Classic because of the extra pickup disc.
