Vintage Jack
All K&K guitar pickups are available with a Vintage Jack, available in many materials, including brass, stainless steel, fine woods, and fossilized ivory. A Vintage Jack is the only way to fit an endpin jack if you don't want to modify the original tapered endpin hole. Vintage Jacks are precision machined in Trinidad, Colorado to match the standard taper of Martin and similar endpins. For more information, see my Vintage Jack page or email here.

Gold Strapnut only
Gold strapnut for use with all K&K pickup assemblies. Please note that this is the strapnut only. Also, it does not fit LR Baggs strapjacks as these use a metric thread. (Though I may have spare Baggs ones - please enquire if interested.)

Schatten acoustic guitar thumbwheel volume control
Here's a neat, unobtrusive way to add a volume control to an acoustic guitar. Schatten T1 thumbwheel controls are small, circuit board mounted units which can mount to the underside of the soundhole lip on an acoustic guitar or to the underside of a floating pickguard with the supplied 3M VHB foam tape. 250k controls are normally used in conjunction with single coil magnetic pickups or transducers; 500k controls are normally used with higher-gain pickups. Supplied with full instructions and 20" of low noise shielded cable. For K&K volume controls and mini preamps, see the K&K preamps and volume controls page.

Schatten acoustic guitar thumbwheel volume and tone control
Here's a neat, unobtrusive way to add a volume and tone control, or two volume controls, to an acoustic guitar. Schatten T2 thumbwheel controls are small, circuit board mounted units and can be used as either a volume and a tone control or as two volume controls. They come complete with the appropriate value of capacitor (.047mfd) for use as a volume and tone unit. They can mount to the underside of the soundhole lip on an acoustic guitar or to the underside of a floating pickguard with the supplied 3M VHB foam tape. 250k controls are normally used in conjunction with single coil magnetic pickups or transducers; 500k controls are normally used with higher-gain pickups. Supplied with full instructions and 20" of low noise shielded cable. For K&K volume controls and mini preamps, see the K&K preamps and volume controls page.
