Göran Ehrlund from Sweden is a designer and manufacturer of high-end studio microphones. Their capsules don’t have a round shape, but a patented triangular shape. This special triangular shape reduces unwanted resonances and is also used for the Ehrlund contact pickup. This contact pickup is mounted to the belly by means of three small balls of putty.
Most important for best results is to find the sweet spot on your instrument’s top (on my bass, it’s over the bassbar, near the bridge foot – customers also report good results near the ƒ-holes). Once you’ve found this place for your individual instrument, the pickup can stay on the bass or can be detached after use. Besides for double bass, the pickup is suited for other instruments like guitar, cello or violin.
A preamp isn’t needed for the Ehrlund pickup, but for best results, we recommend the Ehrlund preamp, which is voiced to match the Ehrlund pickup perfectly.
LANDO SPECIAL – Double Bass modification: The Ehrlund pickup comes with a cable of 1,40 m length and 1/4″ male plug. We can shorten the cable for you and change the male plug to a 1/4″ female jack for mounting the pickup to the double bass tailpiece.
11,– € surcharge, incl. LANDO pickup clamp
