The picture below shows our optional alternate mounting method. This is ideal for instruments that do not have a screw-in type strap button. This utilizes an adjustable self-stick clip to secure the jack. This adheres to your instrument using double stick material. It will not harm the finish of your instrument. The material can be replaced in the event that you would like to use this system on a different instrument. If you wish to order your EXT-100 with this mounting method, please select it from the drop-down menu above. We have recently made some small changes to the way this additional option is offered. It will feature the same chrome plated jack that you see above. It will also include the same clip that is offered in our standard EXT-100 system. This allows you to use it either way. |
We are pleased to announce that we now build this system with genuine Switchcraft #121 jacks. We are dedicated to offering a high quality product at a reasonable price. The fact of the matter is that we just weren't satisfied with the quality of the jacks that we had been using. We apologize for the minor price jump but we assure you that it is well worth it. You will be impressed with the quality of these jacks. They are very high quality and will ensure reliability for years to come. |

STANDARD SERIES EXT-100 RECOMMENDED USES NEW FROM JJB ELECTRONICS COMES THE EXT-100! This system utilizes a single, externally mounted piezo configuration. No modifications to your valuable instrument are needed to install this system! These special surface transducers are under less pressure than under saddle pickups thus decreasing the likelihood of them transmitting a percussive or harsh sound. The piezo is designed to pick up the resonation found in a significant amount of the soundboard. These do not "fade" or distort at high volume or with high-power systems. The highs are crystal clear while the lows are, what they should be, low! They are very responsive. You will not believe the tone and quality of sound that these are capable of! All of our products feature quality components and construction. These utilize an externally mounted ¼ mono jack that is of equal quality to those manufactured by Switchcraft. The jack is mounted to your instrument via a nylon clip that you simply install between your instrument and your screw-in type strap button. We also offer an alternate mounting method if your instrument does not have this type of strap button. This is available upon request. Please see pics below for more details. Please note that the standard clip will make it difficult for you to use a strap. This is due to the amount of clearance between the strap button and the jack. If you plan on using a strap, you might want to consider our alternate mounting option. These will work great with a variety of instruments. Mandolins, ukulele’s, bass guitars, banjo’s, violins, dobro’s, dulcimers, stomp boxes, etc. The possibilities are endless! These are so versatile that they can be installed in about 1 minute! You can switch it from one instrument to another in a matter of minutes by use of the provided reusable adhesive putty. This putty will not harm the finish of your valuable instrument. They are a very simple and inexpensive means of turning your acoustic instruments in to acoustic electric. Please don’t let the price fool you! |
