Tips:
- Where is the best place to stick the mics ?
Depends on what instrument you are trying to mic. Most instruments the best placement will be directly underneath the saddle/bridge.
- What is the little square plastic piece for ?
You can thread the wire tie thru it in place, then stick the square out of the way and secure the excess cable to it.
- How to use the Self-adhesive ?
Remove the plastic film from the back of the transducer to expose the adhesive.

Adhesive backing was near impossible to remove, jack was difficult to plug a 1/4 inch cable into, and it didn't work once it DID plug in. Not happy with my choice. I try to not let negative reviews factor into my purchases, but I really should have with this.

Not overly fussy about this product.The set up to engage the jack into the receptacle was off just enough to miss the connection necessary for function.Im trying to reset the distance the jack can go in, but there's only so many threads on the finish button... doesn't seem to wanna work with me.If it happens with the second one I got... I'll send it back.

No installation instructions, however, found installation instruction video on Youtube which assisted. Sound is quite good and "chorus and reverb" are effective. All in all, this amplifier is worth the price,

I use them on an upright bass and they are ok! A little experimenting helps in terms of placement, so use doublesided tape to find out where before you pull the adhesive backing off.

I installed it on my banjo. I thought it would be smart to stick one disc underneath where I strum it…bad idea! The scraping of the strings and tapping of my strumming hand on the banjo head really stuck out. I pulled off that disc and cut the wire as it was SUPER hard to pull it off and bent the disc and broke its wire lead. No matter. There were two left under where the bridge sits and the cut off lead did not buzz. The sound is pretty darn good now! There are better sounding piezo pickups, but they cost a lot more than $10! The female jack is big and beefy. I am not worried about it breaking over time. The screw on cap makes it look very nice, like my banjo came with this from the factory. I highly recommend this pickup. Excellent value!

We installed this kit in my concert size ukulele. The sound is loud and now I can rock out! My husband was about send the kit back because we couldn’t figure out how to thread the jack through the hole because it looked impossible without having super long skinny fingers. We took a length of heavy wire (like a coat hanger) and taped a paper clip to it. We hooked the paperclip through the little hole in the jack and pulled it through the hole we drilled in the uke and it worked great! We found a video on YouTube that showed a guy installing a system similar to this one. I attached the piezos behind the bridge.

This is a decent little pickup, and it is relatively easy to install. As with all pickups of this type, proper placement and good adhesion of the "pads" is mandatory for obtaining good performance. One thing to keep in mind is that the "pads" are significantly larger in diameter than those on a K&K or JJB, so finding room on the bridge plate may be a challenge. I installed this on a dreadnought that I use for travel and knock-about use, and it works fine. I actually only used 2 of the 3 pads (one on either end of the bridge plate where there was room). I clipped the 3rd one off and sealed the wire ends with heat shrink. I have a little Fender Acoustasonic, and I do not need a pre-amp for moderate amplification. I certainly would not install this pickup in a high end guitar, but it is certainly good enough for most others. YMMV.

I put it into my resophonic guitar. Stuck the three pads in different places along the cone. I thought the sound was messy so I removed two pads. What was left was good sound for a $10 pickup. Better than any of the stick-it-on-the-outside-of the-instrument pickups I've tried. It's a very affoedable was to experiment. You'll probably want a better one someday, but this was a very good start for me.

I bought this so I can mix guitar and vocals and "play along" music while practicing. It wasn't too hard to install, but takes some thought. I did find that after playing for a bit, the endpin wanted to come loose. I used a few red threadlock drops and it's been tight ever since.The sound is pretty good. I mounted two piezos onto the bottom of the bridge (one on the "treble" string side and one on the "bass" string side) and one to the body just in front of the middle of the bridge. I just use the preamp on the mixer and it's a good mix. I suspect that a dedicated preamp would sound better, but for what I need it's surprisingly good with really no buzz.EDIT: still going strong after almost a year and a half. I just got a Behringer ADI21 pedal, which is about $35 and it makes this pickup set sound amazing. So for less than $50 all in, I have a VERY nice sounding cheapo guitar. FYI, this is mounted in a Jasmine S34C, which is incredible also for the price.

The product arrived from one day to the next. It came in a cushioned envelope. Upon opening it I noticed one of the piezos had broken white film-it was chipping away, the soldering was intact though. I had a decision to make- keep it or send it back??? For the price and having passed the test (hooked it to an amp to test it) I kept it. I reamed out my guitar endpin hole to 1/2” with Stewmac reamer I bought here on Amazon a couple of weeks back (along with some smaller drills to start the hole) I had the piezo installed in my classical guitar in no time. The threads on the jack can get cross threaded so don’t force it. As far as placement for the three piezos I just somewhat evenly spaced them just forward of the bridge ( similar to the K&K model) as best I could, my guitar has bracing. The piezos have 3M adhesive that work well I slightly tugged under the base of one of the piezos(not by the cable) and it was on there. So once you put them on you might not be able to move them without something damaging or falling apart. I then stuck the zip tie with the other base to hold the cables.Sound wise, I used a Fender Mini passport, the amp has different presets I simply found the best one that worked. I found in some cases I had to really blast the volume and in some cases there was too much volume(depending on preset). I did use a feedback buster(soundhole cover) but in some cases I still got some feedback. In my setup there was to much bass not enough mids or trebles ( results will vary depending on placement of piezos) and of course volume was controlled from the amp. I play at church but I think this pickup will only be used at home to jam and practice. All in all it was nice to electrify an old Yamaha classical guitar.For what it is and the price, I recommend it.
