Its pickup & preamp system uses the same Yamaha SRT Powered System technology that the most discerning upright bass performers have enjoyed for years, while retaining the headphone output and auxiliary input that make the SVC line so popular for practice and studio work. The 300FModel offers a warm, acoustic-like tone, ideal for high-quality practice and recording.
