The KNA UP-2 Pickup with Volume Control

Description
The KNA UP-2 universal piezo pickup, a simple yet powerful way for musicians to amplify their acoustic instruments on stage or in the studio. The compact UP-2 easily adheres to any acoustic instrument—guitars, violins, ukuleles, harps, you name it—using the included double-sided PowerTack adhesive, with no modification required. Once installed the UP-2 captures the natural tones and nuances of your instrument and routes them to your amplifier or PA system. A built-in volume control knob lets you adjust output level on the fly. The UP-2's detachable cable means it can stay on your instrument during storage, ready to amplify at a moment's notice. Versatile, portable and elegantly designed.
Adheres Safely to Any Acoustic Instrument
The UP-2 universal piezo installs safely and easily to the surface of any acoustic instrument, providing natural sound and response without the need for professional installation or modification. Its innovative adhesive backing attaches securely but removes cleanly when needed without damage. The UP-2 is ideal for rental instruments, vintage pieces or any instrument where minimally invasive pickup installation is preferred.
Built-In Volume Control for On-Stage Control
A built-in mini potentiometer allows musicians to control their volume output from the stage or studio in real time. Dial in just the right amount of gain to complement vocals or other instruments in the mix. The UP-2's on-board volume control means no more fumbling with amp or mixer knobs to make quick volume adjustments.
Detachable Cable for Convenient Storage
A detachable cable enables the UP-2 to remain securely in place on your instrument during storage. Simply unplug the cable when not in use and coil it separately, keeping your gear bag tidy. Reattach the cable in seconds whenever you're ready to plug in and play.
High-Fidelity Piezo Pickup Captures Natural Tone
The UP-2 utilizes a high-fidelity piezo pickup to capture the natural acoustic properties of your instrument with clarity and detail. Your instrument's tone comes through full and true, from the warmth of the low end to the shimmer of the highs. The UP-2 is a simple, elegant solution for amplifying acoustic instruments of all kinds with immaculate fidelity.

Great portable pickup for a classical guitar
submitted10 months ago
byJeff
fromNeenah, WI
This pickup worked great on my wife's classical guitar of which it does not need any batteries and just goes directly into my amplifier. It comes with either an adhesive back or a pliable adhesive to stick to the guitar of which I placed below the bridge. It picked up the sound nicely and sounded very good. It also has a volume knob which is very helpful. A good product for a reasonable price.
awesome product would definitely buy.

Excellent pick up for Veena (south Indian stringed instrumen

I bought a couple of these pick ups in Oct 2020 for a south Indian acoustic stringed instrument called Veena and followed the instructions to find the sweet spot and installed them. The output was routed through an active DI box and into an analog mixer for home and online performances. The sound out of this pick is amazing! Last week (Oct 2021) I needed to move one pick up from one Veena to another and from unfortunately broke it while detaching. When I checked with Guitar Center, they were unable to replace it since it had been a year and I contacted KNA. All they asked me was how I had originally attached it to the Veena and a photo of the broken pickup. Only 3 days later, I received a replacement UP2 in the mail. Outstanding product backed by outstanding service!!

ACOUSTIC GUITAR WORKS GREAT.
Perfect Sound!

I recently bought this product to amplify my Martin for the gigs. At first I was skeptical but as soon as I installed the pickup on my guitar all of my doubts went out the window. I immediately fell in love with the clarity that this pickup provides and the volume control is a very nice touch. I was going to buy a pickup system and have it installed but after using this on a couple of gigs, I can honestly say that with this pickup I don't need it. The best part is that this is very portable and comes with a putty that won't destroy your instruments surface. 10/10 would recommend.

Can this be used inside the guitar for people looking for less stuff to pack up, haul, replace and swing around on stage, or by people that like the finish on their guitar?
I’m very sorry. Your question is not clear. It's a pup. It has nothing to do with stage gear,submitted2 years ago

Can this pickup be moved from one guitar to another, as needed? Or is it intended to be attached to one instrument for the long-term? Thank you. --Dana
