Back IN STOCK and ready to ship! These will sell out again fast. The Micro-Manouche is the new standard in magnetic pickups for Gypsy Jazz guitars. Robin Nolan has called the Micro-Manouche: "simply the best there is!" It's well established that all of the classic Django style surface-mount magnetic gypsy jazz pickups (e.g., Stimer) suffer from single-coil noise and poor string-to-string balance: a brash and overly loud "b" string and a relatively dead "g" string. The Micro-Manouche solves all of these issues with panache and strikes the perfect balance with acoustic strings and the classic gypsy jazz Argentine type strings: the Micro Manouche is GUARANTEED to have optimal string balance or your money back and NO NOISE—it's a humbucker. And it mounts and removes in seconds with no modification to your prized instrument. Best of all it avoids that annoying piezo "quack".
However, don't think of this as merely a "gypsy pickup"—the highly versatile Micro-Manouche pickup has become a favorite among all players who use acoustic strings: archtop jazz players, acoustic guitarists, reso and dobro players and is even used on niche instruments like the, cigar-box guitar, the Indian veena and balalaika! Endorsed by professional players like Robin Nolan, George Cole, Marc Athlan, Ghali Hadefi, Benji Nini Winterstein, and Will Dickerson. The Micro-Manouche is exceptionally well-balanced and works with all steel-core acoustic strings: phosphor-bronze, Coated (Elixir™), Monel™ and Argentine (silvered copper) strings. It's truly a UNIVERSAL pickup. Please note: if you use regular electric strings, jazz flatwounds, or nickel please use my Micro-Stealth PAF pickup.
This is the pickup for you if you want the most natural tone and best string balance. It sounds like YOUR instrument. 30-day money back satisfaction guarantee. One year full parts and labor warranty against defects.
