What type of Barbera pickup is used (hybrid or twin hybrid)?
All 4, 5, and 6 string Barbera violin bridges are hybrid models (one transducer per string) but can be special-ordered as TWIN hybrids for an additional charge (two transducers per string). But before you go rushing out to upgrade to a twin hybrid, you should know that we feel there is not a noticeable difference between the two. The 7-string Vipers all come with twin solid model bridges (2 transducers per string) Our 4, 5, and 6-string Cobra cellos all come with Barbera twin hybrid pickups (2 transducers per string).
