Radial StageBug SB-4 1-channel Active Instrument Direct Box

I purchased one of these for my daughter who plays fiddle in our country band. We play every weekend and are a working band. This thing is almost plug-N-play. Boost the signal from the Barcus Berry Piezo to more than enough. The sound is superb. Very little EQing if any at all. We've been using it for about 2 months now and have nothing but praise for it. As a matter of fact, I bought me another one last week for my fiddle. She had a LL Baggs for the last 4 years but never quite got it set right with so many adjustments. This one is much better. Simple. It works great.

The Radial StageBug SB-4 Piezo DI box works great with the pickups on our Yamaha CP-70B Electric Grand Piano, replacing the original CP-70B electronics. It sounds great connected directly to the piano's built-in piezo pickups. Phantom power delivers great gain with virtually no noise. The shipment arrived on schedule and was everything we expected.

This is permanently on my pedalboards for piezo pickup guitars!

I bought this DI thinking to run my Breedlove with a piezo through it for a better acoustic sound . Running my guitar through the normal input would produce no sound though I clicked the phantom power on and off on my mixer but it would produce sound through the aux input , so I'm still trying to figure that out , otherwise I'm happy with this product and I'm sure that it will be handy to have in my arsenal . If anyone has any tips on my issue, please let me know on comments .

It's decent and simple for the money with my K&K pwm pickups. Not magic by any means.

Worked wonderfully with the string trio. I used this with the mackie dl-1608 and 3 string instruments. You'll need to use phantom power. The signal is quite hot. I had to adjust the trim to account. I also used the mighty mini pickup for the mic.

This unit changed the way I mix violin. It took all the harshness out of the signal. Allowed me to leave EQ flat and allowed the violin to sound beautiful.

It needs phantom power, but it is just great on acoustic guitars or anything with a Piezo pickup.
