"Kleio 47 is an ideal pickup for oval gypsy jazz guitars. We were inspired by Django's electric sound between 1946 and 1950. The tone of Kleio 47 is influenced by those recordings, where the poor amplification and the naturally aggressive acoustic technique of Django gave to our ears (and hearts) that legendary, gypsy jazz tone."

Argentine Strings
The pickup is well balanced between the gypsy strings (especially on B string) and this is because we tuned the pickup considering the famous Argentine gypsy strings of Savarez, but also works very well and with other gypsy strings. Also there is a line on top of the pickup that indicates the position of the B string.
3m cable and Velvet pocket are included
Installation
Kleio is not a permanently installed pickup.
Kleio has a protecting tape at the bottom and a metal mount clip. ?he spring force of the mount clip is sufficient so that the pickup can remain stable.
Restrictions
The pickup may not fit in your guitar if:
The bracing in the guitar top is very close to the edge of the oval hole, because this bracing will not allow you to push the pickup any close to the fretboard.
The fretboard thickness is less than 7 mm, including the fret distance (fretboard thickness + fret > 7 mm pickup thickness).
