The Realist Cello acoustic transducer was designed by Ned Steinberger in association with David Gage.
A primary design goal was to create a transducer that would work equally well for pizzicato and arco through commonly used amplifiers, without requiring a pre-amp or other active, battery powered gear.
A flexible element fits under the bridge foot so that it picks up sound from both the bridge and top plate.
Produces a rich and powerful response that is acoustically true for both pizz and arco without adjusting controls.
