Nanoflex Pickup with Preamp

For few centuries bass makers world wide selected the best woods to make, create and build the upright bass as it sounds today. Many hours of trimming the top and the bridge are invested to create the ultimate bass sound.

Shadow’s Nanoflex technology makes no compromise in preserving these features. It is built to reproduce the instrument vibrations authentically with every move of the bow in all positions. No need of instrument modification was a must in developing this absolutely noise and hum free violin pickup system.

Nanoflex pickups do not only take the vibrations of the strings like common undersaddle pickups. Nanoflex senses the vibrations of the strings AND the body of the instrument simultaneously. No other pickup technology gives you this high level of sound reproduction.

Due to active amplification directly at the pickup and 100% shielding of the entire system, no sound will be lost and no hum created.

This is why the best upright bass players in the world are using the Shadow SH 965 NFX Nanoflex pickup system.
