I got one of these in a Tanglewood acoustic i just got and this is by far one of the best sounding pickups for under $100 around. I got mine for $50 shipped. Im plugging mine into a Acoustic 30watt amp. I find 40% volume on the mic and 50% on the pickup sounds really good. I have ZERO complaints and for the $ ! Cant go wrong.
Bought one of these for my Tanglewood a few weeks ago and have been really pleased with the performance so far. Initailly I had it as a temporary pickup but today I drilled out the endpin and installed it permanently. The humbucker pickup is very responsive and the output quite high compared to other guitars... lovely warm tones that reflect my guitars natural sound. 😊
Very nicely done. The 902 is basically a copy of a Fishman blend. I have both, and the 902 is superior. The sound quality is about the same, but the battery change is better on the 902 (with the Fishman the batteries are the fiddly little ones often used in hearing aids, and the configuration has changed, so they don't fit will into position - mabye OK with newer models); also, with the 902 the mic and mag come with separate volume controls; the Fishman is just a mix control - you can't change the overall volume on board. Oh, yes, and the Fishman is about 4 times the price.
Hi Man! I don’t think so since it is a magnetic pickup and it requires metal strings. Perhaps you can try a pickup or pickup mic that is designated specifically for a nylon stringed guitar.
Whoa man, this is an amazing review! I have some question2 with regards to the pickup. 1. Does it reduce the natural 'loudness' of the sound itself when strumming not using the pickup? and 2. Have you tried comparing the sound of the pickup vs conventional microphones (dynamic, condenser), and which do you prefer in terms of guitar sound? Thank you
Hey man! I’m glad you found this review helpful. With regards to your questions, here are my inputs. 1. For your first question, I think there was no difference in the natural sound loudness whether the pickup is attached in the soundhole or not. And if there is, It’s unnoticeable. 2. For your second question, before I had this pickup, I used to record with my Audio Technica ATR2500 usb condenser mic. However, it broke down so instead of buying another condenser mic, I ought to buy this pickup instead. In terms of which is better in recording an acoustic guitar, condenser mics are the best as they will be able to capture the natural sound of the guitar... that is if your recording room is acoustically treated. If not, I find this pickup to be a good alternative as regardless of the condition of your room, the pickup should be able to capture your acoustic guitar to the most natural way it can, though some find it a bit too electronic in sound but you can fix that when you are already mixing and mastering your recording. You can also record your guitar using dynamic microphones but in my experience, it is a bit muffled and bassy in the recording as you need to place the mic nearer to your guitar, preferably pointed at the 12th fret. The recording will sound tiny and muffled. Dynamic mics are better for recording vocals and podcasts as you can place your mouth in the mic nearer. All in all, to summarize, if I were to prioritize the mics and pickup in recording your acoustic guitar, it would be in this order, consider first a condenser mic (if your room is acoustically treated), second this pickup and lastly a dynamic microphone. Hope this helps :)
@@patrickpunzalan5939 whoa, your reply is as elaborate as your review video. This really helped me in deciding what pickup to get. Thank you kind sir. For this, you earn my subscription. BTW, I love your video, just relax more, go crazy.
Nicely done. Just installed this same pickup on my Furch and it sounds amazing. Q: does the battery continue draining if the guitar remains plugged into the amp even though the amp is turned off?
I think the pickup drains the battery even when its not plugged in but only at a very small percentage. In my case, I only plug-in my guitar for about 3-4 hours in my audio interface (because I record and monitor about 4-5 times a month) and the battery is still working even after a year. As of now, my guitar playing is only part time. But then again, doing the math, if you are a full time musician and you do use this pickup for a lot of gigs, I estimate that the batteries will last about 3-4 months. It wouldn’t hurt if you have an extra set of battery lying around. The battery for this pickup is super affordable.
YEs. The battery drains if a cable is plugged in. Has nothing to do with if the amp is on or off. When you plug the cable in the tip activates the battery.
Woahh! I have a question. My guitar already has a under saddle pickup so is it possible to add this with that one for percussion because that way, in a live setting, i can add effects to the strings without adding the effects to the percussion sounds? Awesome video man!!
Awesome video, mate! Have you tried the Fishman Rare Earth Mic Blend? It sounds really close to this one in terms of sound. I'm curious to know what you have to say about it, because there's a huuuge difference in price here in Brazil and I was considering buying the Fishman until watching your video! Is it reliable for frequent live gigs? The battery life stands? Thanks a ton in advance!
Hey! Sorry. I dont have the Fishman pickup but I think I saw a youtube video that compares that to the skysonic. As for this skysonic t-902, it's reliable in my experience. I use it once a week and it lasts about 2 months. Thanks for commenting!
Hi I recently bought one but i find that the volume of the E and B strings on the magnetic pickup is lower than the other strings. Is it the same with yours?
@@DeepVoicePH nope. i would suggest gettimg a better pickup if your budget allows, I have been using ENYA X4pro guitar that comes with a pickup and the sound quality is just mindblowing. You can look for other options too
Where will you be buying from? Here in the Philippines, you can buy it via lazada or shopee. You can check the description for the link of shopee where I bought it :)
Excellent review, with up close instruction on installation.. Skysonic should be paying you for this. I would use this for my guitars.. BUT, i'm mainly interested in getting it for a 4 string Acoustic BASS.. Do you think it would work well with an Acoustic Bass??
@@patrickpunzalan5939 Thanks for the quick feedback, much appreciated. I just went out and got an Acoustic Bass that already has a Pickup on it.. because i'm in the Phils and finding this Skysonic or other top quality pickups was becoming a project.. you know creative people need to have the ability to create.. TODAY... Lol. Take care
Hey Man! I bought it in shopee here in the Philippines. You can check out the link in the description. You can also try in Amazon, Ali Express or Lazada. As for the skysonic a-710, I dont have one. What I researched is that its a passive pickup, meaning it don’t need any batteries to run. As for the sound quality, you can try to search other demo or reviews in youtube then compare it with my demo in this video to see which sounds better to you. The only drawback if you will choose skysonic a710 is that it wont capture the tapping of your guitar if you do percussive fingerstyle playing. It only captures the vibration of the guitar strings. As for what to get and what is cheaper, it really comes down to the purpose and what fits your guitar playing... what sounds better to you. Go man!
Hi Man! I don’t think so since it is a magnetic pickup and it requires steel strings. I think the mic component of this pickup will be able to pickup the strings but not fully.

hey! In terms of function, they’re pretty much the same. Both have magnetic pickup and a condenser microphone. The main differences are the design, the condenser mic placement and the adjustable screw pickups on the T-903. The condenser mic on the T-903 model is located underneath the pickup whereas the T-902’s is protruded. In terms of Sound Quality, I believe they are pretty much the same. In price, the T903 is more expensive. Which is better? I can’t say as I only have the T-902. Thanks.
is it a humbucker? I cant find much sonic difference between the condenser mic and the magnetic sounds. So the basic version the A 810 - wondering it sports the same magnetic pup?
to those who have tried this pickup Skysonic T902 with Boss OC 3, lemme know. the problem that im facing, that this pickup it wont catch up the bass tone with BOss OC 3 at E/6th string. when i switch it on, the most solid bass tone will pop out is on 5th string. it does do bassy sound, but only on 8th fret, 6th string. but on my old guitar, which has piezo pickup, doing its job prefectly like want it.
unfortunately, my t902 came and when i started testing it i found some external noises. When i stop playing some buzzing sounds occur ( idk if there is a word like this ) but when the guitar is silent, my amp produces bzzz bzzz bzzz noises which are not really great. Also some strings sound pretty odd. I like the sound, its clear and wonderful, but those things disappointed me so much....
@@patrickpunzalan5939 I have 3 cables, which I checked and nothing changed, but they all work perfectly. I have recently bought a Marshall amp, so it can’t be the amp. I think I ordered a broken one, but it’s possible to play because these noises aren’t loud. Always been afraid of ordering from Ali express… I think that mine is not the official skysonic because it came without a battery and also the box is way different. There is written skysonic and that’s all. You have a different box. That’s it, I don’t know what’s that…
@@bogdangrund3913 I see. There were different designs of the box released over the years so I havent heard any fakes so far. I think what you are hearing is a static noise. It’s like something is grounded. Have you checked or tried to mix the magnetic and mic volume controls on the pickup itself? Maybe everything is at max volume that is why there is something like a static or gray noise.
@@patrickpunzalan5939 the noises come when I add the microphone to the magnetic pickup. They really destroy everything I play. If you could listen to them, you understood. They completely disappear when the mic is off, but when I start addding some the dirt comes. Is the mic broken?

Hey there, I wanted to ask you how the pick up is doing nowadays. Is it still working perfectly fine? Are there any problems with the sound which appeared ? Are you still using it?
Hi There. Yes it is still working as awesome as the day I received it. I’ve had it since November 29 of last year 2020, so that is almost 8 months. The quality is still the same. I use it for my online gigs and music recording. Amazingly, the cr2032 battery it uses still operates up until today. But I got spare batteries in case it runs out.

Soundhole if you are in an acoustically treated room but if in live setting, better toward the body or bridge so that there won't be any feedback.

@@vladacoustic89 I think you wont be able to buy this product sa mga musical stores such as JB music, RJ, Yamaha and others sa malls (kasi I tried)
8:33 mark pala yung nakamix yung pickup and mic for percussion.
Nakabili lang ako sa Shopee :) I shared in the description of this video the link of the shop where I bought it. So far after 5 months, working fine naman siya sa pinagbilhan ko. Ok naman ang seller :)

Hey there, I wanted to ask you how the pick up is doing nowadays. Is it still working perfectly fine? Are there any problems with the sound which appeared ? Are you still using it?
Hi There.
Yes it is still working as awesome as the day I received it. I’ve had it since November 29 of last year 2020, so that is almost 8 months.
The quality is still the same. I use it for my online gigs and music recording. Amazingly, the cr2032 battery it uses still operates up until today. But I got spare batteries in case it runs out.
So yes it is still working and the quality is the same.
Cheers! Favor! Please do subscribe to my channel!
@@patrickpunzalan5939 I have ordered mine from AliExpress already 😀. Thank you for your feedback on this pickup. The sound is clear indeed
@@bogdangrund3913 welcome!
@@patrickpunzalan5939 I am just curious about the end pin jack. How can I drill it without damaging the guitar, also what size I need. Did you do this on your own?
@@bogdangrund3913 Hi Man. Yes I drilled it on my own. You may check the video description on this as I placed the official skysonic website for the materials you will need. :)
God bless u
To you as well :)
Ito ba yung nabibili sa shopee na china shop
Yes
ayos na ayos sir
gano katagal malowbat battery?
It’s been 10 months and the battery is still ok. Maybe because I rarely use it about 4-5 times a month.
@@patrickpunzalan5939 wow. good replacement sa onboard pick up. Maraming salamat sir.
Great review, Sir Patrick! I'm considering installing this pickup system connected to a Shadow e-sonic pre amp system for better sound control.
Thanks for the extensive review. It helped me a lot. Subbed! 😊
Thank you! Very much appreciated :)
I have a question kuya, pede po bang duon sa may bottom corner ilagay yung end pin parang yung normal guitar lang po na nandun sa may ilalim ng end pim sa halip na sa may gitna, blak ko po kasi lagyan nang strap lock button ang gitara ko kaso pag dun ko nilagay sa may gitna yung end pin jack di ko mlalagyan nang stap lock, sana po masagot thank you po
Yup! It's possible. Actually, the endpin jack is a strap lock itself. That's where I pin my guitar strap. You can check it out for yourself.
Ganda ng tunog sayang mukhang hndi papasok sa ukulele
