Description
The SA-6 Mag Mic solves the classic acoustic dilemma: pure magnetic pickups sound solid but a bit closed-in, while mics capture air and body but howl the second you turn up. Seymour Duncan’s answer is to run both at once. A hum-cancelling stacked-coil magnetic pickup sits in the soundhole doing what magnetics do best — tight, warm, feedback-resistant string tone — while a built-in omni-directional condenser mic listens in on the top’s resonance and adds the breathy, dimensional character that magnetics alone can’t reproduce.
- Hum-cancelling Stack-style magnetic pickup, always active
- Onboard omni-directional condenser mic for natural acoustic detail
- Single volume knob blends in as much mic signal as you want, from subtle to full-bodied
- Magnetic pickup stays rock-solid at high volume, handling stage-level output, overdrive, and even deliberate feedback
Because the magnetic side is doing the heavy lifting at loud volumes, you can push the mic in for extra realism without losing control of feedback — a big reason aggressive lap-style and Weissenborn players like Ben Harper, David Lindley, Xavier Rudd, and Cindy Cashdollar have leaned on the Mag Mic for years. It’s not a pickup for players who want to sit quietly in the background; it’s built for guitarists who dig in and need their acoustic to keep up with a full band.
