The Fishman SBT‑E is a passive piezo transducer pickup that is mounted on the soundboard of the instrument, delivering a natural and warm acoustic sound.

Unlike soundhole pickups, the SBT‑E “captures” the vibrations of the wood itself, producing a more realistic and open tone, ideal for guitarists who want to preserve the authentic character of their instrument.

Its passive operation means it does not require a battery, and it can be used either alone or in conjunction with a preamp for improved performance.
