Used It with Ukulele - Does the Job, Great Value
I needed something to connect my soprano ukulele to the computer (for recording), and I realized this might be the cheapest way to do it, if I didn't want to use any external microphones.
The pickup is very easy to place (using the accompanying sticky blue-tac-like paste), and does the job as you'd expect. For the ukulele, I realize the optimal placement is NOT under the bridge, as acoustic guitar users suggest, but right below the sound hole.
Two IMPORTANT things to consider:
1) You'll need some sort of preamp. I plugged it to my Zoom G1X, and it works flawlessly (plus, I got some cool effects).
2) Be VERY careful with feedback. I stupidly turned my guitar amp toward myself while trying to play. The pickup... picks up sound, which above a certain volume can cause some massive feedback. Turn the speaker the other way around, lower the volume, or use headphones.
Other than that, not much to add. It's not professional-grade, but it definitely does the job.

A true surprise
I use a lot of different instruments live, from lutes to flamenco guitars and much more. this is frankly a very good working way of amplifying acoustic instruments. It works fine. I suggest anyway to use a preamp to get a better sound.

It's good emough for...
This piece of gear is usable for just about any acoustic instrument, we tried violins, acoustic guitars, and for the hell of it we put it on an electric guitar. And it worked just fine, the sound quality is good, but the volume you can get trough it without a preamp is quite low if you do a folk jam gig, but other than that, I recommend it. Cheap and versatile, I say give it a shot.

No complaints
Needed something cheap and easy to aplify a banjo in band sessions. Got just that. Keeps falling off every now and then but that just adds to the live exprerience. Level of sound was surprisingly good for such low price.

The price quality
I use it with an irish bouzouki and the sound is really correct for that price. Zero feedback. Also i use it with some percusions like thunder tube's and the sound is awesome.

Always in my bag in case I need to record an acoustic instrument
Needed some time to find the sweet spot for the resonance, but I even got to amplify and use effects with my standard piano :) Nice sound, good price. Thinking of getting a spare, in case I accidentally brake it or loose it.

Not bad at all!
I bought this pick up for a back up for my acoustic guitar and it happened that I had a situation where I had to use it. On my Epiphone Masterbilt Deluxe electronics got busted on a gig and I placed the Harley Benton TrueTone T-20 right away on the body near the bridge. Just a bit of EQ and the guitar sounded not bad at all. I was really surprised what sound you can get from this 15 euro pickup. Once again, I wiil say BRAVO to the guys whoever are behind Harley Benton as this is not the first and not the last item I am buying from Harley Benton. Cheap stuff but trustful! Thanks Thomann!

Great value
I purchased this to amplify a saz I recently purchased from Thomann. It comes with a little pack of sticky stuff very much like blu tack. Once you get the placement correct, you get a great sound. Although this may depend on your instrument and of course the amplifier you are using.
All in all a great way to amplify an acoustic instrument with out permanent modification.

Great Pickup
I had bought this for my resonator guitar, but it is too thick to mount on the biscuit. My bad, should have checked dimensions. I have tested it on a few other instruments, using Thomann's special tape (you need this if you temporarily mount pickups on an instrument). The output is great, good sound, high level. The PU is well built, and being made of wood, it blends well with spruce and similar wood.

I love it. For this price this is the best I could find and try.
Makes my good artesanal guitar to sound through the PA without loosing too much. It does not destroy the look and does not damage the finishing. It is inexpensive. What more to ask for this price?
Thanks Thomann.
