Micro-Manoúche Universal Humbucking pickup for Guitar.
This is not merely a "gypsy" pickup: my highly versatile (only 6mm thick) Micro-Manouche humbucking pickup has become a favorite among 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, Ghali Hadefi, Benji Nini Winterstein, and Will Dickerson. The Micro-Manouche is exceptionally well-balanced and works with all metal strings: phosphor-bronze, nickel, Monel™ and Argentine (silvered copper) strings. It's truly a UNIVERSAL pickup.

ON SALE: The Krivo Pickup for Upright Bass
Sold out
The world-standard magnetic pickup for upright bass is now even better. The 2020 Krivo pickup for upright bass now mounts with a heavy duty but lightweight brass L-bracket (no modification whatsoever to your bass is required: bracket attaches with included 3M™ Dual-Lock fastener). The new mounting system enables the Krivo to fit even basses with a very thin or even curved "cutaway" style fingerboards. The new mount keeps the pickup securely attached even with very forceful and aggressive playing—great for rockabilly and psychobilly players. The 2020 Krivo pickup for upright bass now has a full coverage two year warranty.
Please note: the new mounting system is NOT able to be retro-fitted onto older versions of the Krivo pickup for upright bass: the new pickup is structurally reinforced internally and the housing is enlarged to accommodate the new improved mounting system.
As always, the Krivo pickup for upright bass is fully adjustable for perfect string balance and my proprietary Optimized Microphonics™ technique results in a surprisingly "acoustic" sound. Please remember: you must use steel-core strings for any magnetic pickup to work properly. The Krivo also excels on electric upright basses (EUBs).
Coming Soon: The Krivo Micro-PAF Humbucker for all Guitars.
Sold out
The Micro-PAF humbucker is very clean and flattering pickup with lots of output. This pickup provides a warm yet clear sound with a very sweet midrange. Great for archtop jazz guitars, slide guitar, acoustic guitar, parlor guitar—and more! A mere 7mm thick at the apex of the radius: the Micro-PAF installs and removes in seconds and requires no modification to your guitar.
Can't decide which Krivo pickup to buy? It's easy: if you use phosphor bronze or Monel™ strings choose my micro-manouche pickup which is the exact same pickup as the Micro-PAF Humbucker but engineered for optimal string balance without the need for separate adjustment screws. If you use nickel, stainless, flatwounds or any typical "electric" string then choose the Micro-PAF Humbucker.
Additionally, the Micro-Manouche is best if you want a more "acoustic" sound whilst the Micro-PAF is better for a warmer "Jazzier" more electric sound.
