The Shadow SH 965 NFX-B is a professional double bass pickup that provides absolute natural sound with zero hum. The pickup is based on the revolutionary Nanoflex-technology, that makes no compromise in preserving these features. It's built to reproduce the vibrations of your bass authentically with every move of the bow in all positions. No instrument modification was a must in developing this pickup system.

For centuries bass makers worldwide selected the best woods to make, create and build the upright bass as it sounds today. Many hours of trimming the top and the bridge are invested to create the ultimate bass sound. Nanoflex pickups not only take the vibrations of the strings like common undersaddle pickups. Nanoflex senses the vibrations of the strings and the body of the instrument simultaneously. Due to active amplification directly at the pickup and 100% shielding of the entire system, no sound will be lost and no hum created.

Shadow SH 965 NFX-B Nanoflex Pickup with Preamp for Upright Bass Features:

• Reproduces the instrument vibrations authentically
• 100% hum and noise free
• Super sensitive Nanoflex pickup
• Volume and tone control
• 1/4" output socket

The sound quality of this pickup is very good. Installation was easy. It even looks good. The problem with this product for me was an absolute lack of customer support.

I bought my pickup in September 2008. Around the end of January, the pickup started getting really quiet. I had only used it for one live show and a couple recording sessions and had kept it unplugged between uses to ensure battery life. I suspected it was probably the battery even though I would have expected longer battery life.

All I wanted was to check their website to see if this was a sign of battery weakness or if there might be something wrong with the pickup before buying a new battery.

Not finding anything on their site about this, I sent an email using their submission form (there is no phone number listed). After weeks, I haven't heard back--even after sending followups saying "please respond to me." I finally replaced the battery and everything is good but I am shocked by what I would consider their lack of customer focus.
