A removable and portable single pickup unit for stringed instruments such as
guitars,
and the like. The unit can be mounted inside of a sound hole of an acoustic guitar
without damaging the guitar. The unit can combine inputs from three different pickups(such
as a magnetic sensor, vibratory transducer, and a microphone) into a single small
housing. The unit can include a pre-amplifier and circuitry within the unit along
with three rotatable rheostat type control knobs for each of the pickups, and an
overall volume control knob that are easily reachable to the user's fingers while
the fingers are on the strings. An output cable connects the unit to a single external
amplifier or three individual amplifiers for each of the three different pickups.
