The Ibanez SC500N is a classical electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1998 as part of their S Classic series. It stands out among modern Ibanez solid body guitars for its unique configuration, featuring nylon strings and piezo pickups instead of magnetic pickups. Inspired by the marriage of the S series and the Radius series, the ...
Pickups are usually designed to feed a high input impedance, typically a megohm or more, and a low-impedance load increases attenuation of higher frequencies. Typical maximum frequency of a single-coil pickup is around 5 kHz, with the highest note on a typical guitar fretboard having a fundamental frequency of 1.17 kHz.
The specifications of this Hummingbird are very close to the Gibson Standard Hummingbird original with spruce top and mahogany back and sides, all solid woods. The fretboard is made of Indian laurel, the inlays are mother of pearl and both nut and saddle are bone. There is a Fishman Sonicore under the saddle piezo pickup system.
Piezo pickups are generally mounted under the bridge saddle of the acoustic guitar and can be plugged into a mixer or amplifier. A Piezo pickup made by Baldwin was incorporated in the body of Ovation guitars, rather than attached by drilling through the body; [15] the combination of the Piezo pickup and parabolic ("roundback") body helped ...
Cole Clark uses a patented ‘3-way’ pickup system that combines three elements (under saddle piezo assembly, face brace sensor, and a condenser mic) that work together, hearing only frequencies they are best equipped to handle to deliver less ‘quack’ and ‘ping’ that the average acoustic pickup and eliminating many of the feedback ...
The Stetsbar is a floating vibrato system—the pull of the guitar strings is held in equilibrium at the scale length of the guitar by two heavy duty springs anchored to a spring retainer block on the unit's base plate. When a player moves the vibrato bar up or down, the bridge operates with a linear motion in the same plane as the guitar strings.
Vibrato systems for guitar. A vibrato system on a guitar is a mechanical device used to temporarily change the pitch of the strings. It adds vibrato to the sound by changing the tension of the strings, typically at the bridge or tailpiece of an electric guitar using a controlling lever, which is alternately referred to as a whammy bar, vibrato ...
Hybrid guitar. A hybrid guitar is an electric guitar with the ability to produce a signal with the tonal quality of an acoustic guitar in addition to a typical electric signal from a magnetic pickup, allowing a wide tonal pallette. The signal from the two-pickup systems can be blended on board, or (sometimes on the same instrument) fed ...
