	K & K Sound - Bass Max - Temporarily Out Of Stock The Bass Max is a double bass transducer with sandwich design for "quick wedge-mount" in one bridge wing. Its sandwich design features a layered construction of two piezo crystals, one facing up and one down. This ensures an even transmission from the strings and from the body of the bridge with all its frequencies. The Bass Max is located vertically to the vibrations and therefore transmits at a high volume. We recommend Bass Max for musicians playing both arco and pizzicato styles, as it transmits a broader mid frequency range. This enables the musician to change his playing modes without having to adjust the amplifier. The connection jack is held in place by a special attachment clamp mounted at the A and D strings between string-holder and bridge. One Bass Max will evenly pick up the tone range of the double bass. A big plus is the Bass Max's superb compatibility with smaller bass combo amps.		Price:

	Schaller Double Bass Pickup Passive magnetic This pickup has been around since the 1950's. It is attached to the end of the fingerboard with some screws, and has a built-in volume control.		Price:

	AMT Acoustic Bass Mic S25B - Temporarily Out Of Stock The S25B is an electret-condenser microphone that has been designed for acoustic bass. All of the parameters that are problematic for the double bass have been addressed. To be able to get the most gain before feedback it uses a very tight pattern to give a high rejection to surrounding noise, at the same time reproducing accurately the subtleties of the bass. As placement is especially important with an instrument that has a fine finish and varying dimensions, this microphone's attachment mechanism is designed to secure the mic to the bass in different positions taking seconds to attach. This mechanism is fitted with natural soft suede so as not to mark or mar instrument. Made from aluminum to keep the mass low yet extremely strong, this microphone will remain durable through many years of use.  The flex arm is easy to position yet retains it's placement throughout the most active of performances.  The mic has an LED that can be easily seen while performing.  This indicates status of a battery or phantom power.  The pre-amp for the microphone is rugged anodized aviation aluminum, which houses the electronics that can be placed on the floor.  This pre-amp utilizes a circuit that can change EQ, curve, and gain by exchanging EPROM-like chip.  The pre-amp runs off of battery or phantom power.  The output is terminated with a male XLR type connector for balanced use.  The mic is connected to the pre-amp by a four pin locking connector.
