ARTEC PC85

Artec PC85 Cable piezo pickup - Eşik Altı Akustik ve Klasik Gitar Manyetiği

Piezo cable is an alternative form of piezo polymer sensor. Designed as a coax cable,
the piezo polymer is the \"dielectric\" between the center core and the outer braid.
When the piezo cable is compressed or stretched by vibration of strings,
a voltage of sound signal is generated proportional to the stress.

- Flexibility
  The piezo cable pickup has no buzz and contact problem under bottom of saddle.
Because of the piezo cable has good flexibility.

- String Balance
 The piezo cable pick-up has no string balance problem.
And it can applied for all case having no concern with the number of strings and pitch.

Technical specification

• Capacitance at 1kHz : 84pf / 85mm

                         (not include teflon cable)

• Energy output : 10 (mJ/Strain(%))
• Voltage output : 5 ( kV/Strain(%))

NOTICE : PC85 have different impedance and charateristics with solid piezo pickups. It can not match with ARTEC regular preamps.

Installation tip

The piezo cable pick-up installation is very simple and easy with any style of bridge. But it can make contact problems if thru-hole is tight with piezo diameter. It must carving hole side of enlarge the hole for the cable can bend smoothly.
