Gypsy guitar pickups

The micro A1 is generally used in addition to a contact microphone on a gypsy jazz guitar. Placed inside, at the edge of the soundhole, it is invisible and protected and faithfully and very naturally reproduces the sound of your instrument with precision, dynamics and allows comfortable return levels on stage. No need for a microphone stand, the musician can move without the sound changing. In combination with a contact microphone, it brings fidelity, air, precision in the sound.

"We just came back from a heavy European tour, Ischell pickups are the very, very best in the market ”. Stephane Wrembel

“… I've been using the Ischell on all my gigs and so far it has worked beautifully. I've been looking for a fatal flaw but so far can't really say I've found one. Last week I used it at a super noisy restaurant and had it cranked pretty loud and it didn't feedback at all. Of course, the sound is truly natural as it's a mic. It's a joy to play gigs like these without resorting to a highly modified pickup sound…. Felt like I was doing an acoustic gig!… MichaelHorowitz

Reviews

 The Ischell Inside Box + CPJ is a really fantastic system for gypsy jazz guitar amplification. I'm really blown away by the natural sound that the microphone produces through my Fishman amplifier. There is no feedback problems now that I have applied the putty correctly, I'm looking forward to playing loads of gigs with my trio!

 Hello! I recently bought an ischell inside box mic pickup for my gypsy guitar. I love it! Thank you so much. You did a great job. We played a huge show last night and the sound was amazing. Just plugs right into a fishman amp with no effects. Couldn't ask for anything better!

 I'm really pleased with the Ischell, I've been using it on several gigs with a quintet that includes two horns and a drummer. On the Dupont MDC-50e, the ischell has delivered a very good acoustic sound without feedback issues.

 I have used this mic on several gigs now and it is a truly fantastic unit! The sound is excellent and no feedback! I'm using a Zoom A3 box in between the mic and the PA so I can use the EQ and boost function. Actually I just roll off some treble and that's about it. It doesn't need much at all. Excellent product !! Doug Martin, member of Lulo Reinhardt's Latin Swing Quartet and John Jorgenson Quintet
