A discreet pickup to capture the true tone of your acoustic guitar
The KNA HP-1A is aimed at guitarists who want to amplify a steel-string acoustic while preserving the natural character of the instrument. Its soundhole ring mounting allows for quick and reversible installation, ideal if you alternate between pure acoustic playing and amplification, or if you prefer not to drill your guitar.For stage, rehearsal, and recording of steel-string acoustics
Thanks to its humbucker format, the HP-1A helps reduce interference and unwanted noise, a real advantage when dealing with lighting, power supplies, and electrically noisy environments. It is especially suitable for picking, strumming, or accompaniment guitarists seeking a balanced capture with good definition and dynamics usable in a mix.Double coil, neodymium magnets, and built-in preamp
The pickup is based on a double-coil magnet design (neodymium magnets) to maximize sensitivity and tonal response. The mahogany pickup and birch electronics housing provide a refined finish and a lightweight assembly. The integrated preamp aims to deliver a cleaner and more stable signal while maintaining the "acoustic sound" spirit sought by discerning musicians.Technical specifications
