Improve Your Amplified Classical Guitar Sound: Transducer Pickup Installation Guide

In this video I’ll show you the tools and steps required to install a transducer pickup into a Takamine acoustic or classical guitar. The same procedure applies for virtually any transducer pickup. This was probably easier than most because the CTP-2 preamp inside this particular Takamine TH5C already has an inbuilt receptacle for a transducer pickup in addition to the pre-installed palathetic bridge pickup.

Equipment:

– Takamine ‘Transducer pickup: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Takamine-Soundboard-Transducer-Pickup-Guitar-Hand-Saw-Oud-Ukulele-Kalimba-/222290676559
– Blunt nose pliers
– Needle nose pliers
– Cable ties
– GoPro/Mirror
– iPad

The GoPro and the iPad were only used to allow me and you to see inside the guitar. I used those to show me where to place the transducer and to let you see the inside of the guitar and the installation process.
I recommend installing the pickup on the treble side of the bridge. Don’t attach it to a brace, rather, attach it directly to the underside of the bridge.

My classical guitar lessons and acoustic guitar lessons will help you to learn to play the guitar. I cover a wide range of guitar music and each of my guitar lessons comes complete with matching guitar tabs and guitar sheet music. These online guitar tutorials are a one-stop shop giving you an effective means of learning beautiful guitar music without needing a teacher in your local area.

You don’t need to be able to read tab or sheet music to play any of the songs in these guitar lessons but they can be a powerful tool that can assist you to become a better musician. All guitar tabs for my lessons are free and can be downloaded easily from our website or for a very small fee you can also purchase the guitar sheet music that contains standard music notation with guitar tabs underneath, suggested left & right-hand fingerings, and performance indications.

I hold a Licentiate in Performance Classical Guitar with Distinction from the Trinity College of London and I love arranging music for guitar. I have well over 20 years of teaching experience at many schools in New Zealand and also at one school in Dubai, and privately in Bahrain. I have taught people from all ages and skill levels and continue to do so via YouTube.
