## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the sensor and other components be safely removed when not in use?**
A: Yes you simply reverse the process of putting it on. That said when removing the pickup portion from the bridge do not pull by the wire.
Easy peazy

**Q: What is the frequency range for this pickup? I am considering trying to adapt it for use on an autoharp.**
A: Hello,

     Thank you for the inquiry. To answer your question this pickup will amplify all audible frequencies. You might want to also look into our AP series pickups. Those might work a little better and you won't have to alter the pickup. 

Best,

**Q: Can this be connected to a console?**
A: Hello,

My name is Sean and I am a representative from KNA pickups. To answer your question, you can plug directly into a mixing board.

**Q: Can it work with phantom power at all?**
A: This is a passive piezo pickup and neither requires nor suports phantom power, as it's not a balanced output.   You COULD choose to pass it through a preamp which runs on your choice of an A/C adapter,  or batteries,  or phantom power.
