| Reference list "I think that the sound production of this pick-up is the closest one can possibly get to the paradox of an `amplified acoustic double bass`! The WILSON Pick-up is the best transducer for double bass I have ever seen and heard. An Excellent offer to the bass players who want their sound amplified but tolerate absolutely no distortion of their music. I can warmly recommend the WILSON Pick-up system". - Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, DK |

 "Wilson Pick-up System is the only system that gives me the true acoustic sound, ev en without any EQ. When I need to compete with the sound levels on stage of the likes of David Sanborn, Mike Stern or Randy Brecker, I can turn up+ and play loud without worrying about feedback. For several years I have toured and recorded with Wilson Pick-up, and it has never let me down. Not even once!" - Chris Minh Doky, Denmark  "The WILSON Pick-up is great! It has that natural wood sound that I am looking for in amplified pizzicato and arco performances". - Wayne Darling, Austria |
 "I really enjoy to play with your pick up system. Wherever I play Jazz Clubs, TV, Studios, Concerts etc. I can find the sound I like to play with. Thanks to the WILSON's pick up, I dare at larst to play with the bow on stage with any amplification system. The sustain reproduction is really accurate, not too long, not too short, and I like it very much." - Jean-Philippe Viret, Paris  "This pick-up system is really fantastic, it reproduces a warm and distinct sound and has no feed back problems" - Carlos d’l Puerto, Cuba/USA |
 "I’m thrilled with this new system, which I regard as the absolute best on the market". - Arild Andersen, Norway  I use the WILSON PICK UP on my electric fivestring bass together with a magnetic pick up. The result is extraordinarily good. It adds the necessary acoustic amount to my slightly electric sound. In addition - although my special bass has no resonance body - I can still use it occasionally as the only pick up, especially when the circumstances, like electric interferences do not allow to use a magnetic pick up system. I can highly recommend the WILSON Pick-up SYSTEM. I'm very satisfied. - Eberhard Weber, France |

| "The WILSON Pick-up for double bass gives a very realistic reproduction of the acoustic sound and is simply the best I have ever used. The same has been said by the great sound engineers Rudy van Gelder and David Baker, when they recorded me on several recent albums directly from the Pick-up. I highly recommend the WILSON Pick-up. - George Mraz, USA |

"WILSON Pick-up gives a natural acoustic bass-sound, not only by pizzicato but even by arco. WILSON Pick-up gives the natural bow-sound. That is why I always use WILSON Pick-up. - Yasuhito Mori, Sweden/Japan |
