Product Description A really versatile and user friendly pickup. The band makes an excellent and affordable alternative to permanently mounted designs. Output is via a regular jack lead;Weight: 0.20kg (approx.);Made in: United Kingdom Box Contains 1x Headway Violin Band Pick-Up Review: Sounds great - I really like this pickup, it's easy to use, sounds great (even to the critical ears of my music lecturers and technicians) and works perfectly. Having read some of the other reviews I'll say that I haven't used it loads yet and so can't comment on wear and tear but so far it's been really good. I think for me it does slightly annoy me that it covers the violin but I didn't want to spend loads more and buy the step up from this as the bridge pick up and this is really good. It's only a thin band and doesn't look bad at all but I'm just picky I think, if you are too it might bug you a little but the quality of the sound will stop you caring. Review: Worth a Buy, Excellent in sound - Delivery within stipulated time period without damage. Second time that I have bought this as is my all time favourite for the violin. Well designed to give an accoustic feel unlike other pickups. Thanks Headway for this innovation. Along with the EDB, this is a great combination for violinists. I have been using this for more than 10 years now

Great product
Every time I play a gig with this, the sound tech smiles with relief. :) The violin model will also fit a small viola. My one gripe is that the Velcro became dislodged after comparatively little use. It's a small complaint but it does interfere with an otherwise excellent product, so I'm surprised Headway haven't found a solution.

Happy Pro
Did everything I needed it to - versatile, neat and warm sound. Gr8 for professional use especially when performing at UK Festivals :-) Only problem is the Velcro isn't securely attached to the band and so I needed to use double aided tape to secure it.

Does the job well
Certainly easy to fit and use with good reproduction of acoustic sound. Only issues; do get some rustling noise from body of violin when moving instrument into position and a touch of feedback in a high volume setting.

Lovely pickup
Lives up to its reputation in other reviews. Natural sound, very hard to get any feedback however hard you try, easy to fit and switch between instruments.

VIOLIN PICK UP
IT WORKED VERY WELL, ALTHOUGH A LITTLE EXPENSIVE, IT WAS SIMPLE TO ATTACH AND YOU COULD PUT YOUR JACK PLUG STRAIGHT FROM AN AMPLIFIER INTO IT. THANK YOU. RUPERT.

First class violin amplification
Easy to use, no modification to your precious instruments! The sound is very natural and warm, and the price payed, considering the quality, it's ok.
