Schatten banjo pickup

[goldtopia]

I am considering buying a Schatten banjo pickup. What do members think of it and are there any for sale ?.

you buy a Schatten goldtone and let us know what you think of it

Yeah, i'd be interested in a review too.

In that same vein, would a reviews are be of any interest/use?

The Schatten banjo is very easy to install. A small tab is stuck inside the banjo opposite and inline with the bridge. I connects to a little box fastened to the tension bolts (like the arm rest). If you get the PRO version it has a little volume control knob. It is black and rather neat. The sound from the speakers is the same as that coming from your banjo.

sounds like a good bit of kit by the sound of it you would recommend them

IWAS LOOKING AT ALL THE SHATTEN PICKUPS AND LIKED THE ONE WITH VOLOUME CONTROL --BUT THE WIRE GOING TO THE CONTROL BOX SEEMS SHORTER THAN THE OTHER 2 MODELS OR AM I WRONG?

I sometimes play banjo in a trio with a Dobro and bass, sometimes I play guitar and sing, and a friend plays my banjo. The banjo with no pickup has plenty of volume, so why is a pickup considered necessary ? I would also add that this is in quite a noisy bar situation, but the banjo (open back) cuts through, the other instruments of course have pickups...
