EMG - ACB Barrel Black

The EMG ACB Barrel Black pickup is a game-changer for picky banjoists looking for quality audio. Its ingenious design installs seamlessly, directly onto your instrument's coordinator rods. There's no need to modify your banjo or call in a technician: you can assemble the system in just a few minutes, like a pro. Connections are made via pre-wired cables and robust connectors, ensuring rock-solid reliability even during intensive touring.

At the heart of this pickup, a neodymium magnet combined with steel produces a good frequency response, with a resonance at 6 kHz that brings out the attack and harmonics typical of the banjo. The built-in preamp, powered by two CR2032 batteries (providing up to 500 hours of autonomy), delivers a clean, powerful signal, with no hiss or extraneous noise. The result is a natural, detailed sound that reproduces the acoustic character of your instrument.

Whether you're rehearsing at home, recording in the studio or playing on stage, the ACB Barrel Black can adapt to any situation. Its compact size (20.8 mm long) makes it discreet while maintaining good acoustic reproduction. Bluegrass, folk and country musicians appreciate its transparency and ease of use.

The package includes everything you need: microphone, mounting bracket, preamp, cables and even Allen keys for fine-tuning. A complete package, designed to last and perform.

With EMG, a brand renowned for its high-quality pickups, you're investing in reliable technology that honours the original voice of your banjo. No more compromises: this pickup gives you technical freedom and authentic tone.
