Hi there,
I'm hesitating about which pick-up to chose between the Ukulele Misi trio and the L.R. Baggs 5.0.
From older posts and reviews, the sound seems nice with both, and I don't really have a preference between an easily chargeable short-life battery and a long-life one that's a bit harder to change...
But there are still a few things I'm not sure about that could help me chose:
- Can anyone tell me if it's actually easy to control the volume on the L.R. Baggs? It would be very useful for me as I sometime need to put more volume on fingerpicking parts, less on heavy strumming ones... But I can't really imagine how this can be done quickly with the volume control being inside the uke?
- Is the difference of weight really noticeable? I imagine both are so light that we barely notice them.
- Is there any way to know when to change the battery (in the LR Baggs case), so that it doesn't finally die at the wrong time (counting 300 hours of playing is not an option!) ?
Thanks in advance for your help!
(I posted something similar in another place but can't find it anymore, and I believe the post was not actually sent. But please excuse me if this message already exists...)
