B-Band UST replacement

Wolfetone

After owning my Tanglewood TW47 for five years, it started displaying the usual uneven string volume issue. I had never been happy with the transducer as it did no justice to the beautiful rounded tones that a solid mahogany body produces acoustically.

I did a bit of reading and discovered that B-Band do a transducer called a BB-1470 for the A3T preamp that sticks on the bridgeplate.

I got my wallet out and invested but NOOOO!!! The Bridge Doctor that I fitted six months ago was in the way. I was going to send it back but I noticed that on a few forums, people had stuck them on the back of the sound board. That's what I did and it's now fantastic with no howl or feedback whatsoever. Three inches to the side of the bridge on the bass string side to be exact.

A result that I thought you should know about.

I love the B-band electrics I put in my simon&patrick acoustic. I went with the A2 preamp which has got both the UST and the AST that you've just fitted. I find that both of them give a really lovely and natural sounding tone, although live I more commonly play with the UST as I haven't got around to making up a cable which just takes the AST as a mono-out (the preamp I've got gives a stereo output without a way of blending them into a mono).
