Hi Michael,

I got it this morning, and I'm very happy with it!!!
It's definitely much better than the shaller I had before as it has more detailed high frequencies and also does not have any buzzing because of a screw or anything else!
It's really a great product and I hope you'll sell many of them!

Thanks a lot!

Hello sir,

Ted here from Mumford and Sons. Thanks as ever for making such a great pickup! I love it so much.

The nice people at Upton bass in America are building me a new bass at the moment. The plan is to collect it at the start of our USA tour in March and use the bass straight away.
For this to happen, we need the Zadow pickup fitted by Upton so the bass is ready for the gigs.
Gary Upton should be in touch today with the drawing of the finger board.

Many thanks,
Respectfully.

Ted Dwane

I've played several gigs with the new pick-up, and just wanted to thank you!  It's a huge improvement in the clarity and quality of sound.  Beautiful little invention.

Michael - received safely. It works very well, fits perfectly and is just what I needed, thank you. I added magnets to the E and A strings to balance out my particular bass (Chadwick folding bass with Thomastik Spirocore). My piezo pickup (Realist Lifeline) is not putting out a signal strong enough to balance well with the magnetic elements, but I can separately preamp if I need to. As it is, the magnetic pickup alone will be all I need for the louder gigs.

Hello!

I happened to see a guy named Ben Kelly play upright for John Mark Nelson at the Cedar Cultural arts center in Minneapolis this past weekend. He showed me his Zadow pickup he had installed in his upright! It sounded incredible and I was blown away by its ability to reduce feedback! I have a number of large outdoor gigs coming up this summer and I was wondering about pricing and installation on these pickups! I would love to order one so please let me know more details! Thanks for making a great product!

Hi!

The pickup arrived yesterday and yesterday in the evening I had a concert.
The bass had really a good and powerful sound with your pickup combined with the underwood without problems of feedback.
I'm very happy!!!
Thank You.

michael,
i just wanted to let you know i've used your pickup about a dozen times now and it is fantastic!
i've used it indoors, outdoors, in small bars, on large stages - even in a baseball stadium! - and everywhere i've been it's acted flawlessly, giving my bass the round, low end i need for the full 'rock band bass' tone as well as offering some of the characteristics of my bass.
sure, i'd rather hear my bass unplugged or just with the piezo for trueness of tone, but for the high volume, rock situations i'm playing in this is exactly what i needed and i'm in complete control of everything.

thanks again, michael. i'll be sure to let other bassists know about it, too!

cheers,
tim

Hello Michael,

I think you remember me, I'm the french guy who have ordered a custom pickup few month ago...
And I've finished my bass now.
This email is just to thank you for this great work, because the sound of my bass is awesome (never expected it to be so good), very massive low end, and clear too. The strings balance is perfect, everywhere on the neck.
I also use the pickup with a "MXR octave bass" pedal, and it works better than on my electric bass !

Thank you again.
Warm regards
Julien
