how to attach my schaller oyster single plug

Henrik

Going to use 3M VHB sticky pad, my old GJ guitar is quite beaten up so not overly concern but still much loved.

Could use some advice tbh

Hi Henrik. I tried a sticky pad with the same pickup but the output was very low. I switched to a 2 sided thin tape and it worked much better

The Schaller website instructions are detailed, click on the "description" from this link.

As mentioned above try the thin double-sided tape. You can also try to put it under the bridge, use a piece of cork to wedge it snug. I used to use K&K pickup this way.

I have wondered about attachment options also. Would Scotch restickable tabs work? The blue putty doesn’t hold well on my Krivo or piezo. https://www.amazon.com/Scotch-Restickable-1-inch-18-Tabs-R100/dp/B0039N3QO2/ref=asc_df_B0039N3QO2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198062181806&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11937133712058331350&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=t&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9007417&hvtargid=pla-353815922777&psc=1

Giving up on the schaller ..it just wont pick up anything!. Going to try the 'Harley Benton Truetone T-20......heard it's not too shabby.

Can't afford the big guns 🤣
