FAQ

Description
HiFi DNA is the latest model in the "HiFi" series, retaining the mounting structure that does not require modification to the saddle and the resistance to howling that the series has cultivated, while revamping the sensor and signal processing.


Dedicated sensors are placed on the high-frequency and low-frequency sides of the bridge plate. The signals from both sides are individually amplified and shaped by independent discrete preamplifier circuits before being mixed into a single output. Compared to conventional methods that use a single preamplifier, this system more faithfully captures the vibrational characteristics produced by each string.


The sensor itself has evolved to be made of thinner and more flexible materials, resulting in improved sensitivity and expressiveness.


Primary Signal Processing
High and low frequencies, with separate sensors and preamplifiers.

Each of the two DNA sensors is amplified by an independent studio-grade preamplifier circuit. Rather than mixing and connecting the two sensors to a single preamplifier, each signal is optimized by the preamplifier before being mixed. By using separate preamplifiers for the high-frequency and low-frequency sensors, optimal adjustments are made for each frequency band, maintaining high sound purity and quality.


Next Generation Sensor
Equipped with next-generation sensors

HiFi DNA pickups utilize lighter, more flexible sensors to reproduce the nuances of the guitar with greater sensitivity. This improved sensitivity allows for a more faithful capture of the acoustic guitar's original tone and dynamic range.


Non-Invasive Installation
Pickup installation without modification

The installation method is simple – just peel and stick – so there's no need to use glue on the bridge or saddle, drill holes, or make any other modifications (only the EMP pin jack requires modification). This low-load design preserves the guitar's original tone without compromising it, whether it's connected to an amplifier or not.
