Question 1

Mandolin Pickup Guidance

Andrew Wild · Accepted Answer

Mandolin pickups come in two basic types: integrated bridge transducers, and sound board transducers (SBTs). SBT's can be mounted on top, usually with adhesive putty, or glued to the inside.The piezo material can be either crystal or film. All of the above work well with ToneDexter.

Maximum feedback immunity will be achieved with a bridge transducer, but the added benefit may be minimal compared to an SBT when using ToneDexter, since it has feedback mitigation built into the WaveMaps.
