Its price is very attractive

Tips and tricks:

Percussion.

Percussion instruments are the loudest instruments on the market. That is why, to amplify a tom for example, you need a microphone capsule that will not overload on the transient (the “attack”) of the sound. 

Well placed, SHADOW pickups, generic piezo pickups, will play their part by finding their place; often a logical one, sometimes an incongruous one, from where they will provide an acceptable solution at little cost 

Sanza, kalimba, djembe, steel drum, tabla, bongo, tom, etc.
