Precise mechanical adjustment to unlock your piezo's full potential
On an electro-acoustic guitar, the piezo pickup works by pressure: too little, the signal weakens; too much, it can saturate. After a string change, the angle and tension can slightly "tilt" the bridge saddle, creating uneven pressure on the piezo. Result: volume imbalance between strings, less consistent dynamics, and an output level lacking presence.
The EKO Piezo Booster, designed and patented by master luthier Roberto Fontanot, acts as a bridge adjustment accessory : it mechanically brings the saddle back into a perfectly straight and perpendicular position relative to the pickup. Once the pressure is properly distributed, your piezo regains a more homogeneous response, with a more balanced signal and a noticeable overall volume gain appreciated for fingerstyle and pick playing alike.
Simple, effective use-ideal for workshop and home
Use is straightforward: place the accessory on the bridge, then give 2 to 3 firm taps (as recommended) to realign the saddle. In seconds, you restore an optimal setup so your guitar faithfully reproduces nuances, attack, and dynamics without disassembling or replacing any parts.

Questions frequently asked
Eko Piezo Booster: Is it compatible with an electro-acoustic folk guitar?
This accessory is designed for folk guitars and guitars equipped with a piezo pickup under the saddle. Its function is to reposition the bridge saddle perpendicular to the pickup.
How to use an accessory to realign the bridge saddle?
Use consists of placing the accessory on the bridge, then applying 2 to 3 firm taps. This mechanical operation requires no disassembly or replacement of parts.
How to correct volume imbalance between strings with a piezo?
A slightly tilted saddle can cause uneven pressure on the piezo and result in volume differences between the strings. Realigning the saddle allows for a more even distribution of pressure.
Does the Piezo Booster increase the output level of an electro-acoustic guitar?
When the pressure on the pickup is properly balanced, the signal gains homogeneity. The adjustment can provide an overall volume boost. Dynamics and attack are then better reproduced when playing fingerstyle or with a pick.
What are the dimensions and material of this bridge accessory?
Made of brown plastic, this accessory measures 145 x 50 x 10 mm and weighs 200 g as stated.
