The K&K Pure Resonator BB is a solid choice for resonator players seeking a natural, uncolored tone. It's surprisingly feedback-resistant, making it great for gigging, but you'll likely need a preamp to get the volume you want. This pickup truly shines for traditional resonator styles like blues and bluegrass.
