Solid performer

Very happy with the purchase. The tuner is fast and easy to read even under bright stage lights. Deducting one star only because the knobs feel a bit light, but they function perfectly.

Exceeded expectations

As a touring musician, reliability is key. This pickup has held up through multiple tours and different climates. The equal temperament tuning ensures my chords always sound in tune across the fretboard.

Great sound, minor fit issue

Sounds fantastic on stage with very low feedback. I had to sand down the mounting brackets slightly to fit my specific guitar model, but once installed, it works like a charm.

Clear and crisp tones

The clarity of the highs and the warmth of the lows are exactly what I was looking for. The battery life is also impressive; I've played three gigs without changing it.

Best value pickup system

I've tried several systems in this price range, and the TEQ-5 blows them away. The 12-tone temperament tuning is a game changer for intonation issues I used to have.

Perfect upgrade for my acoustic

The installation was straightforward, and the 5-band EQ gives me incredible control over my tone. The built-in tuner is surprisingly accurate and saves me from carrying a separate clip-on tuner.

5 FAQ

Q: Does this pickup require drilling into my guitar?

A: No, the TEQ-5 is designed for non-destructive soundhole mounting. No drilling or permanent modification is required for most standard acoustic-electric guitars.

Q: What happens if the battery dies during a performance?

A: The unit includes a low-battery LED indicator to warn you beforehand. If the battery dies completely, the active EQ and tuner will stop working, but some passive signal may still pass through depending on your guitar's wiring.

Q: Can I use this on a classical guitar with nylon strings?

A: While it can physically mount, the TEQ-5 is optimized for steel-string acoustic-electric guitars. The magnetic response may be weak or non-existent with nylon strings.

Q: Does the package include the connecting cable?

A: The package includes the pickup unit, a 9V battery, mounting hardware, and a short internal connector cable. A standard instrument cable to connect to your amplifier is sold separately.

Q: Is the tuner chromatic or guitar-specific?

A: The TEQ-5 features a full chromatic tuner with 12-Tone Equal Temperament, meaning it can tune any instrument or note, not just standard guitar strings.
