PowerMix System

The PowerMix Pure System is a dual-source pickup/pickup combination with external preamp. It consists of:

  • Our award-winning Pure Pickup

  • Our time-tested FanTaStick Pickup (Western or Classic / please check the length specifications), an undersaddle pickup that delivers unbeatable volume, balance, and clarity

  • The PowerMix XT Preamp, an external 2-channel preamp

If you are looking for the sweet, warm tone of the Pure pickup plus really high stage volume before feedback, look no further. Dieter, K&K's head pickup designer, boss, and former pro musician says: "If I would still perform live, this would be the system of my choice."

PowerMix XT Preamp

The PowerMix XT Preamp is a 2-channel, belt clip mixer that allows you to blend the two pickups of the PowerMix System. It features extremely low noise operation and can process high input peaks without distortion and offers an incredible dynamic range.

Aside from its strong bass, midrange, and treble filters (for each channel), it offers internal gain adjustments which set the pre amplification factor from 1 to 10 (per channel). This allows you to boost the input signal up to the 10-fold amount. It features two volume controls knobs, two 1/4" inputs, and a line level 1/4" output on the outside of the box. Inside the box, there are adjustable controls for gain, bass, midrange and treble for each channel. The tone controls offer an incredible +/- 20 dB. This is a wider range than some big boards on the market today!

To keep the box as small as possible these controls are trim pots (small potentiometers for adjustment with a precision screw driver which is supplied). Once you've installed the two pickups, you can adjust the trim pots to your personal taste and needs. During performance, the two volume knobs on the outside allow for fast balancing on the fly.

All parts of the system can be installed non-destructively without drilling any holes other than the endpin hole. The components are meticulously phase aligned.

Internal PowerMix Pure System (Made-to-Order)

For customers who prefer a fully onboard solution, we can make the PowerMix Pure System with internal preamp. The internal preamp allows for precise sound adjustment of each transducer. It features gain, bass, mid, treble and volume controls for each individual channel and uses low-power consumption parts so that the battery life is up to 120 hours. The output jack is a high quality Switchcraft endpin jack, wired so both channels are mixed together for mono use with a standard mono guitar cord.

The preamp can be installed under the sound hole for easy access or hidden deeper inside the guitar. The removable attachment system will not damage your guitar's label. For initial adjustment, we recommend a sound hole placement of the preamp. After you are finished adjusting your personal sound, you can choose to position the preamp deeper inside the guitar. The double volume control element is attached to the inside edge of the sound hole and allows for quick volume adjustment of each pickup channel.

All parts of the system can be installed non-destructively without drilling any holes other than the endpin hole. The components are meticulously phase aligned. Made-to-order fee applies. Please contact us for more information.
