The RB-1A Artist Upright Bass Pickup provides Schatten’s RB bass bridge sensor wired to a high quality preamp assembly that attaches to the underside of the tailpiece. The RB-1 Artist also includes a high quality onboard preamp for those players that need to plug into a mixer board or PA system. The preamp automatically turns on when a cable is plugged into the jack, and turns off when the cable is removed to conserve battery power. The preamp assembly mounts to the underside of the tailpiece with the included industrial strength velcro attachment pads. The main RB sensor element is designed to fit in the wing slot of a bass bridge. Normal placement of the sensor is in the bass side slot. The sensor has a nominal thickness of 0.25″ (6.35mm) and requires a slot opening of approximately 0.225″ (5.7). The fit of the sensor in the slot is meant to be snug and there is intended to be a slight interference fit. The sensor will compress slightly as it is pushed into the wing slot. Bridge not included.
