The Pickup
The pickup in the Ekdahl FAR is an active electromagnetic pickup, it works on the principle of a steel object (the string in this case) inducing a signal into a coil (the pickup). For this reason the Ekdahl FAR will only work with strings that are made of steel and other ferromagnetic materials.
All electromagnetic pickups are sensitive to electromagnetic interference, the Ekdahl FAR tries to minimize this issue by incorporating a shield that blocks out EMI and directing sound pickup straight upwards. The pickup housing also contains an active amplifier.
In order to minimize noise, the pickup needs to be as close to the string as possible without touching it when struck with the hammer or starting to resonate.
To move the the pickup use a 3mm hex key to loosen the pickup screw, this can be done even when the case is on. The pickup housing may stick a little bit to the holding plate, you can press lightly with your thumb to loosen it up. If you don't remove the hex key from the screw head you can use it to push the pickup into position and then fasten it. Do not over-tighten .
The pickup screw has a grounding wire connected to the pickup amplifier, if the pickup is "buzzing" after having moved it, is possible that the pickup screw isn't making proper contact with the holding plate. Just loosen the pickup screw and re-fasten.
