Archtop Nylon String Jazz Experience
but eh, are you Experienced ? (the Jimi Hendrix Experience)

 

rosewood fingerboard, cedar top, tortoise binding, rosewood pickguard

 

handmade rosewood bridge with RMC piezo pickup

So how does it work?
The six individual piezo pickups go to a special output on the guitar that leads to the high quality RMC Poly-Drive preamp unit, which equalizes the signal and sends it to the guitar amp or.......... a guitar synthesizer like the Roland GR-20.
Just take a look at the next pictures and/or go to the RMC website www.rmcpickup.com

Yeah, but how does it sound?
Download the mp3 file 1.Strayhorn piece.mp3 and get an idea of the sound. The piece is recorded by Axel Hagen, recorded in my workshop, over an Acoustic Image amp, using two AKG C4000B microphones into a DigiDesign M-Box, Pro-tools, Apple Lap-top computer. No limiters or other effects than the natural reverb are used. See picture for the recording setup.
