History of the Underwood Pickup

The Underwood pickup was designed by Don Underwood in the early 'seventies, to prove theories he developed about the operation of the viol bridge.

His first prototypes worked so well that he decided to market the device and applied for and obtained patents.

Major bassists throughout the world use the Underwood, some for as many as twenty nine years. It has become the standard by which other pickups are judged.
