A soundhole pickup designed to respect your acoustic guitar
The Kna SP-1 was designed for guitarists who want to amplify a steel-string acoustic while preserving the character of their instrument. Its "soundhole" format is placed directly at the guitar's opening, a practical solution to quickly achieve a usable sound without invasive installation.
For which guitarists and situations?
This guitar pickup is aimed at musicians who play rehearsals, concerts, or at home and want a quick setup without luthiery or drilling. Whether you are a pick accompanist, fingerstyle player, or rhythm player with chords, the SP-1 aims for faithful and dynamic reproduction, with good sensitivity to capture playing nuances.
Passive design, soundhole-mounted pickup, and ready-to-play connectivity
The SP-1 combines a simple and effective approach: a magnet-mounted soundhole pickup paired with a passive design to avoid power supply constraints. The piezo pickup is integrated into a mahogany piece, aiming to deliver a detailed and musical sound. Practically, the included cable (3 m 3.5mm mini-jack) and 6.35mm Jack adapter facilitate connection to an acoustic amplifier, mixer, or audio interface, depending on your setup.
