Supplementary information about the TB88/CR pickup
In San Diego, El Cajón, San Francisco, etc. (California. USA).

All TAV Pickups are hand-made, this means quality control and performance very superior to any mass-produced sensor on the market. Its characteristics, high sound quality, very flat response and correct output voltage have made this product popular among some californian musicians, especially acoustic and classical guitarists, as well as other instruments such as the sitar, sarod, hang, etc. But this way of proceeding also has its disadvantages: the demand is high, higher than the supply we can offer. For this reason, in California and other places with high purchasing power, the resale prices of these products are very much higher than what we can find on our TAV website.
