The Realist Acoustic Cello Transducer 1/4-inch Plug

Designed by Ned Steinberger in collaboration with David Gage. Fits under the foot of the bridge. Produces a rich, powerful response that is acoustically true for both pizzicato and arco. Output level is unusually high, and as a result, the signal-to-noise ratio is also very high — no pre-amp is necessary. Finally, a pick-up that lets you play both pizzicato and arco without having to adjust your controls.
