Unlike typical undersaddle acoustic guitar pickups that are dependent on string compression 
for their sound, the Element was engineered to mirror the soundboard’s actual movement as you play. 

At the heart of the pickup, a flexible film sensor only 2 thousandths of an inch thick picks up the 
guitar’s most delicate nuances. Tracking the motion of the top rather than a direct string attack 
suppresses “quack" caused by compression and unlocks the Element’s unrivaled dynamic range. 
The pickup’s minimalist construction lessens any influence on the acoustic properties and creates 
an intimate coupling between the pickup and guitar for the highest fidelity possible.

- Fits both 3/32" and 1/8" saddle slots
- Soundhole mounted volume control

SHUBB AX Axys Reversible Slide, Bronze

While in use, the brass slide is a hefty, no-compromise tool that features unsurpassed tone and control. 
When rotated behind the hand (which takes less than a second) it leaves all the fingers free for unencumbered, 
conventional fretting. It works so well because of the unique 2-piece design: the Delrin "ring" section remains 
in place on the finger as the brass "sleeve" section is rotated with the thumb. The move is done with one hand, 
so quickly that it doesn't interrupt a solo, and any player can master it with very little practice. 
The revolutionary advantage of the AXYS reversible guitar slide is immediatly apparent to anyone who plays 
slide guitar!

We suggest using the Axys on your RING FINGER.

Many slide players have designated their pinky as the slide finger, probably because with the traditional
tubular slides or bottlenecks this was the best way to gain some limited use of the other fingers for fretting.
Since the AXYS offers such unrestricted use of all the fingers, we encourage you to consider reassigning the 
slide to the ring finger or even the middle finger. Most players find this to provide greater control and 
versatility. It will work just fine on your pinky, of course, but this is a whole new ballgame now and you 
don't want to overlook any good possibilities!
