ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a pick-up device for an electric musical instrument having strings. The pick-up device has a primary coil for sensing the vibration of the strings, and a secondary coil for noise cancellation. The secondary coil is isolated from the primary coil by, for example, an operational amplifier. The primary coil operates in a primary circuit, while the secondary coil operates in a noise cancellation circuit. The impedances of the primary circuit are selected to optimize the frequency response of the primary coil. The impedances of the noise cancellation circuit are selected to match the frequency response of the secondary coil to the frequency response of the primary coil.
