The STAT-V pickup system is a violin and viola electrostatic contact microphone transducer specially developed for use in louder musical environments, and is highly resistant to feedback, the bridge-mounted STAT microphone is an ideal choice for jazz, fusion, rock or classical performances involving high levels of amplification. The heart of the transducer capsule is made of cork, which can be shaped with sandpaper to fit the cutaways in the bridge of the instrument. The signal is transmitted by means of an RCA connector secured to the bridge by means of a special clip. STAT is designed to accurately reproduce the warm sound of the instrument strings during performance, giving depth and body to the lower ones while reproducing the clarity and brightness of the upper ones. STAT pickups are available individually, or packaged with a choice of preamps that give the player flexibility and control over a range of sound parameters.
