EnSoul Pan Pickup G2

Available from Gear4Music at £139.00 ($177).

The EnSoul Pan Pickup G2 is designed for players who want a straightforward way to amplify their steel or pan drum without losing its natural character. You attach the pickup to the outside of your drum using the suction cup then connect either of the included cables one 12" and one 18" to your amp or effects board. Its passively powered so theres no battery to think about which keeps your setup uncomplicated.You also get a magnetic jack mount for quick positioning. If your pan isnt magnetic you simply place the mount on the inside of the shell directly opposite the pickup. Theyll hold together firmly giving you a solid connection while you play. Cloth buffers help you fine-tune gain and frequency response and theres a rubber band if youd like to secure the jack to a drum stand. Its a tidy reliable solution to keep your sound clean and true.
