    Was toying with an idea of making a pickup and came accross a circuit diagram and actually made one with a condensor mic and works very well the best part is that i made it below Rs 50 + Rs 60m for the cord which connects bet Guitar and the Amp (in this case i am using my Hi-Fi).Wonder if anybody wants the circuit diagram of the whole thing. send me a message.But u have to be a little Electronic stuff savvy .

    LOL Guitar Gal,
    Its Actually very simple...
    It did take a little while to get this done but then i am trying to give back what ever i got from this site . I had be happy to help anybody .
    In fact we can also make additions to this circuit and add in treble, and bass too.
    i built this cos i cudnt get this anywhere in mumbai .They asked me to wait for a month or so before they cud get it.besides the price was rs 2000 for a Yamaha pickup.To tell u the fact this one is "as good" at Rs 100.
