I have two S.D. Mag Mic for both my acoustic guitars. I love these transducers, they are quiet and allow flexibility with the controls (mic mix + volume). They are very flexible and no noise and feedback (minimul). I run through a Yamaha AG stomp box which goes to line6 looper. I don't perform yet, but I'm havin fun. ;-) Greg >From: JustinFobes@aol.com >Reply-To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com >Subject: Was Re: Line6 loopers, now Acoustic Pickups. >Date: Sun, 14 Sep 2003 14:05:32 EDT > >In a message dated 9/9/03 1:01:13 PM Central Daylight Time, >goddard.duncan@mtvne.com writes: > > > the crap that comes out of tv's (and I'm speaking of the EM radiation, >not > > the content) gets everywhere and guitars can only avoid picking it up >when > > fitted with decent humbuckers. unfortunately, this rather limits what >you can > > do with the guitar.... > > one idea, though, and not a new one by any means, is to adopt the >alembic > > trick of using a dummy pickup to do the humbucking. this would have to >be > > carefully level matched with whatever combination of real pickups you >happen to be > > using. > > > > there is probably a market for something that automatically performs > > noise-cancellation in this manner, like these noise-cancelling >headphones that you > > can get. the shash that you're catching from the tv sets is pretty > > omnidirectional. > > > > but you could start by finding an old single-coil pickup, which you >could > > glue underneath the scratchplate somewhere. to be effective, it ought >to >be in > > the same plane as the other pickups, and roughly the same impedance. >take out > > the polepieces and wire it through a pull-switch pot, so you can >fine-tune > > the phase and balance. > > > > alternatively, you could work on the proprietors to switch to plasma > > screens..... or set up in some sort of metal cage and run a ground >wire. >you could > > have a sign on the front: "don't feed the looper- beer only". > > > > duncan. > > > >Thanks, unfortunately, my Lowden O-35 will not allow me more than one >pickup >at a time (She's a lil hi spirited . . .), I may just replace my Sunrise >with >a Seymour Duncan MicMag.
