The V-200 installs in minutes, with only minor alterations required. Its
low mass minimizes any damping or muting that could affect the instru-

arco or pizz playing styles.

The CARPENTER JACK was designed by noted repairman Fred

an attractive housing, attaches to the lower bout with chinrest hardware.
It makes a perfect mounting point for adding a microphone and does not
affect the instrument’s acoustic tone. It also makes it easy to use a cable
with a right angle plug. The CARPENTER JACK has become extremely
popular with many of today’s finest touring and session musicians.
