Slap guitar

[fcwy1]

Hi,

I play guitar using slap techniques. For example, the two links found below.

I was wondering, if there was a pickup that can pick up guitar body slaps instead of using a condenser mic to pick up the slaps

One such guitar is the cole clark Fat lady 3 which as the face brace sensor which i tried. Is there anything similar to it?

First thing that comes to mind is the Godin Multiac, which Randolf Arriola plays and does quite a bit of percussive sounds on the body, although he uses effects to enhance it. You can find the details about the electronics/pickups here

try piezo pickup, its mean for picking the vibration of the body its attached to and outputting it.
