A special PC thermoplastic material is used to manufacture the case. This lightweight, impact-resistant material is very suitable for injection molding and provides a very durable, scratch-resistant surface.

To achieve optimal performance, neodymium magnets are used.
Due to the low internal impedance, the pickup is less load sensitive and therefore ensures compatibility with a wide variety of preamplifiers and transformers.
