Information:
ADVANCED UNDERSADDLE PICKUP WITH
UNRIVALED DYNAMIC RANGE
Anthem Acoustic Guitar Gold Award 2014
Unlike typical undersaddle acoustic guitar pickups that are
dependent on string compression for their sound, the Element was
engineered to mirror the soundboard’s actual movement as you play.
At the heart of the pickup, a flexible film sensor only 2
thousandths of an inch thick picks up the guitar’s most delicate
nuances. Tracking the motion of the top rather than a direct string
attack suppresses “quack” caused by compression and unlocks the
Element’s unrivaled dynamic range. The pickup’s minimalist
construction lessens any influence on the acoustic properties and
creates an intimate coupling between the pickup and guitar for the
highest fidelity possible.
Element Active System – VTC
(Volume and Tone Control)
The EAS-VTC builds on the strengths of the EAS With the addition of
a treble tone control and a special low frequency compression
circuit. The LF compressor tames low end thump and mimics the actual
dynamic response of the guitar for enhanced realism.
