"Docking station" transducer double bass, with volume control
Volume Control for All... The Realist Docking Station is a no-fuss dock and volume knob that works with any (acoustic) string bass pickup. This “Universal Volume Attenuator” mounts to the instrument’s tailpiece without glue or fasteners. The ¼-inch input and ¼-inch output allows seamless integration to player’s current set-up. The volume attenuation is provided by a sleek anodized knob clearly visible and within the player’s reach so that he or she can clearly adjust on-the-fly.

The Docking Station also features The "Jack-Pot", a potentiometer that allows the resistance to be bypassed entirely. The "Jack-Pot" allows the player to “click” into a final, unresisted stage beyond the loudest setting.

The Docking Station solves jack mounting problems too. The cable is dressed away neatly from the ¼” output without additional hardware. The tension of the strings holds The Docking Station to the tailpiece, like the “loop” from the industry standard Realist “Copperhead” pickups.
