Experience instant amplification with the EnSoul Pan Pickup - uniquely encased, hand-crafted, and designed to produce pure, non-distorted tones from any steel or pan drum. Simply attach the pickup to your drum or any magnetic surface and plug into a 1/4-inch female jack. No fuss, just play! Comes with a padded carrying case for easy transport. Made with imported parts and materials, but lovingly crafted in the USA. For non-magnetic pans, use a Jack Mount and place the pickup on the outside of the shell and the mount on the inside - they'll attract and hold onto your drum.
Features include shielded wire, cloth buffers for adjusting gain and frequency, and rubber tab-bands for attaching to a drum stand.
Choose between Hot or Standard pickups. Hot pickups, compared to standard pickups, have a higher output signal, meaning they produce a louder, and potentially more distorted sound.

I was looking for the right equipment for my Camac Isolde Celtic harp. I did NOT want to install the Dusty Strings pick-ups- seemed like way too much to add. This little gizmo was easy to install with the little pictures on placement- like, less than five minutes easy. I plugged the pickup into my new Roland Mobile Cube and it’s perfect! I don’t hear any sound distortion, and I think this will be just right when playing background music for noisier environments. Super happy with this!

I was excited to receive this kit. I do have several banjos already; however, I did not have a mountain banjo. I have built gourd banjos and ekontings (I went to Gambia in 2004 and 2007 to learn how to play and make them) from scratch, so I am not a beginner in terms of making instruments. I had a lot of fun putting the kit together. I do have a few observations regarding tips or slight modifications in the instruction manual, if interested.
Thanks!

I am very happy with the quality of the instrument. I am of Puerto Rican decent and it reminds me of my childhood, watching the musicians and learning to play myself. It is a beautiful guiro and sounds amazing.

It's great to be able to buy a hurdy gurdy in the US without having to wait for 6 months to a year or more. The Aplo is a quality entry level instrument that produces beautiful sound. It resonates very well and there are no buzzes or squeaks. Workmanship is very good. I got mine cottoned, rosined and tuned in a half hour. The transaction was easy and it arrived within a week.
I've been able to play some tunes on it with only a few hours of practice. It's going to be a lot of fun.

I love it, the entonation is really very good (sorry for my bat english).
Regards!
