B Band Electronics

If you want the perfect combination of the very best acoustic sounds and an electro sound that is second to none, you will need to try a Simon & Patrick. All S &P electro acoustics boast solid tops that date over 800 years old for supreme tone, and come equipped with the very latest B Band electonics. It is worth mentioning that our highly respected technicians, Peter Allen has consistently commented that the best electro sound he has heard was through a Simon and Patrick with the B Band electronics. Here is some information on B Band electronics...

Both systems incorporate the B-Band pickup. The construction of the B-Band is unique. It's an incredibly thin (0.4 mm) under saddle transducer that is based on elastic electret film. The B-Band acoustic guitar pickup features absolute acoustic sound, ample gain before feedback, great dynamics and high definition.

Matched with the B-Band pickup, the NF-1 offers incredibly dynamic, yet soft and well-balanced, acoustic sound. In a live stage set-up, the NF-1 allows the pure acoustics of the guitar to be heard within a band without feedback problems. Onboard controls include volume, bottom and edge.
