K&K Aloha Twin Double-Sensor Ukulele Pickup System
Aloha Twin
The Aloha Twin is an internal double-sensor pickup specially designed for the ukulele. It is based on the same technology as our award-winning Pure Pickup.
The Aloha Twin can be installed two ways:
-
With the supplied double-sided adhesive tape in front of the bridge plate (or bridge, if no bridge plate is present) on the inside sound board.
-
With superglue on a flat bridge plate (or directly under the bridge, if no bridge plate is present). Please note that the bridge plate must be completely flat – it will not work if the bridge plate is radiused, which means it is curved up, e.g. Mele Ukuleles.
Either way, this pickup system has a strong output signal and works nicely even without a preamp. Please keep in mind when playing without a preamp, the result depends somewhat on the quality and type of the amplification equipment.
Installation Options
- Adhesive Installation: Use the supplied double-sided adhesive tape to attach the sensors to the inside soundboard in front of the bridge plate (or directly under the bridge if no bridge plate is present).
- Superglue Installation: Secure the sensors to a flat bridge plate or directly under the bridge. Note: This method requires a completely flat surface and is not suitable for curved (radiused) bridge plates, such as those on Mele Ukuleles.
Performance
- Works well without a preamp, though results depend on the quality of amplification equipment.
- For enhanced tone control, pair with the Pure Preamp, which offers a clean EQ in a compact size.
