Frequently Asked Questions

The active preamp boosts the piezo signal, but NS Design’s system is designed to retain a good deal of the violin’s inherent character, though it leans towards a more amplified sound.
The neck profile is a comfortable, modern ‘C’ shape – not overly thick or thin – which generally suits a wide range of hand sizes, though it's best to try it if possible.
While technically possible, the NS Design pickup system is integrated into the body, so any modification would require specialized knowledge and potentially compromise the instrument’s structural integrity.
