FWF systems are completely handmade in France by Franck Fromy, an engineer whose passion in life is to create perfect sound reproduction. Twenty years ago , Franck founded his own company in Paris , meeting the demanding needs of professional musicians for custom pickups and superior microphones . _ _ _ _ A standard product was developed and thanks to excellent reviews, many top musicians now work with Franck's pickup system , which produces beautiful natural sounds .
The MV-1 pickup sensor system is a very simple yet high quality passive pickup with a double piezo built into a single element designed to be mounted between a wing of the bridge. It has a tunable low-pass filter in the jack plug and thanks to its female jack with strain relief, you don't risk accidentally pulling the cable. The thickness of the sensor is approximately 1.5mm, which is suitable for most (viola) violin combs.
