outstanding pick up, but not what I was looking for my guitar.

On the plus side it works great but, when installed per instructions the sound acoustic is greatly muffled
Great pickup, easy install, excellent sound!
Davestl•October 6, 2013
I received my pickup very quickly in the mail. I found the instructions simple to follow with some attention paid to detail. I had it installed in about an hour and a half. I was pleasantly surprised at the full and true sound. I would buy another Schatten product in a heartbeat!
dobro pickup

The Schatten RG-03 Passive Resonator/Dobro pickup works great and was the right price. It was a quick and easy installation.
Schatten RG-03 - low output
John F. Rossi•July 29, 2010
I initially had this passive pickup installed by a local dobro maker. He noted that there was very little output and re-installed it further down into the cone using 1/8 inch of putty rather than the recommended 3/8 inch. This produced a little better volume but created a very tinny sounding treble. On the chance that the pickup was defective, I requested another one. The supplier Blue Star Music immediately sent a new one. This one I installed myself with 3/8 inch of putty - an easy swap out. The output was still very low but the treble sounded much better. I ran it through a Baggs Para Acoustic D.I. with the gain way up and the treble down a bit. For the price, it sounds fine.
If you decide to do the installation yourself be aware that the cone is made of very soft metal. Any pressure whatsoever will create a dent.
