Designed specifically for jazz bass players, the Double Big Twin's wide transmission band includes very high frequencies for clean amplification of finger attack and very low frequencies for the desired 'bassy' sound. Ideal for picked upright bass.
The Double Big Twin is a four-head upright bass transducer developed specifically for jazz bass players. Its transmission band includes very high and very low frequencies, which makes it especially suitable for jazz bass. The high frequency translation ensures a clean amplification of the finger attack with the picked bass. The low frequency translation refers to a desired very bassy sound picture.
The Double Big Twin is able to pick up each string of the upright bass separately. This results in an extraordinary balance of sound, even for pizzicato playing. The Double Big Twin is easily installed with the supplied double-sided adhesive film and doesn't require modification of the instrument itself. A special attachment clamp holds the connection jack so that it can be mounted at the A and D strings between the string-holder and bridge.
We highly recommend one of our K&K preamps for impedance adaptation and pre-amplification. See our preamp section for options.
For a more general purpose pickup that suits all styles consider the K&K Bass Max pickup (SKU# 44114). For rockabilly players the K&K Bass Master RB system (SKU# 44116) is recommended.
