You're right Eric. I have a pair of those and they work great.
Hello
I have a question. What wire diameter do you use with piezos? Does it matter?
Thank you & cheers
Thumbnail against index finger, pull wire in between. Pull the wire not the piezo.
Ok had one more question then I'll shut up......Say I put a mag coil in my cigar box guitar....with the hole for the mag and that thing hanging from the lid etc....how much would that impede the acoustics if I want to practice without a amp...or is it pretty much very quiet acoustically with that set up?
Thanks again
Ok so my original question...(For magnetic coil) I use a 500k for vol...then I hook up another one of the very same 500k as my tone...no problem right???..and it works just fine that way right?
