I like the tone of Trance Amulet M-VT and Dazzo SBT systems.

As per installing two pickups with a TRS jack, this will allow you to select either of them with a standard guitar cable. Wire your preferred source to the tip connection and you can use that one by inserting your plug in all the way. The secondary pickup can be accessed by plugging a standard cable in part way, so the tip of the plug stops at the ring connection of the TRS jack. This works fine for most jacks; occasionally they won't retain the plug as firmly. Unless you're dancing around a bunch it works fine. You can, of course, use a TRS cable, but it's not strictly necessary. |

https://soundaktuellguitars.de If you contact the owner Uwe Alkofer, tell him that Robert sent you. I use various SBTs and did some comparison vids on YT. Yes, they do not sound too different in the vids, but they do sound different live on stage through a P.A.

Don’t know if this helps but the guitar is about 90% JJB 330 prestige with a very gentle mid roll off and some reverb on the whole recording. They are definitely better IMO than the Journeytek. The Schatten is also very good and can be removed more easily. My Sobell is current being worked on but once it’s back, I can post sound samples of the Schatten. KR David

Not sure why the Journeytech is getting a thumbs down. I had three Journey Instruments OF model guitars (two all wood and one carbon) with the factory installed Journeytech pick ups. All three sounded good and represented the individual sound of each guitar. I did a review here on this subforum. I ended up keeping the all mahogany model. FWIW I've ordered a Journeytech with volume wheel to install in my Martin 000-15. These pick ups have a hot signal, not sure how they would do on a loud stage.
I also own a dreadnaught with a Ultrasonic and a 00 with a Schatten HFN. I like the sound of all three SBT pick ups in these guitars. If I had to pick one it would be the Ultrasonic, I've no experience with Dazzo. Good luck with your choice. Last edited by DownUpDave; 02-21-2024 at 07:51 AM. |
