Home FAQs Troubleshooting

The adhesive pads are losing grip or need replacing. What should I do?

The nano-suction pads are designed for long-term use, but like any adhesive surface, they can wear or lose effectiveness over time:

Clean the pads – Often, grip problems are due to dust or debris. Press a piece of sticky tape onto the pad surface and peel it away to restore adhesion.

Check the guitar surface – Make sure the mounting area is clean and free from grease or residue. A wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth usually works best.

Replacement pads – If the pads have worn out or become damaged, replacements are available directly from our online store.

Alternative mounting – If you prefer, you can also install the pickup using magnets (on electric or acoustic guitars) or soundhole clamping (for Pro and Six on acoustics).

If the pads still don’t hold securely after cleaning or replacement, please contact support for further advice.
