Realist Pickups UK Stockist and Installation

We’ve been selling and fitting to customers instruments, Realist pickups, for many years now. This has given us a vast amount of hands-on experience with the Realist range of products. Using them ourselves as well as on some of our instruments for hire. In particular, The Realist is our go to pickup of choice when hire customers request a pickup on the instrument they are hiring. We really like the Realist products by David Gage, especially the Realist double bass pickup (Copperhead version). Not to mention, the Copperhead is our best selling pickup for double bass.

Realist pickups for string instruments were designed in a collaboration between David Gage and Ned Steinberger.

Being the UK’s largest stockist of Realist pickups carrying every product for double bass, cello, viola and violin in stock and all available for free delivery on our economy delivery service or before 1pm the next day with our next day shipping option if ordered before 3pm. For urgent orders after 3pm please call us on 01332 840391.

You can also read our helpful buyer’s guide to help you choose the correct double bass pickup for your bass.

Installation

The installation of all the Realist products is fairly straightforward, in addition, fitting instructions are included with every pickup. Furthermore, we’ve made them available to download (see below) so that you can see what’s involved with fitting before you buy. By the same token, and as with all the products that we sell, we are not just a box shifter. We are very happy to share our knowledge and give you as much help and advice with installation as you need over the phone or in person if you’d like to visit us.

If you’d rather not install the pickup yourself, we offer a fitting service to customers. Just bring your instrument to us and we’ll do the work for you.
