Barcus Berry 3000AE Piezo Buffer Preamp sees price cut to $186.79
Save $22.09 on this price drop.
Acoustic players looking to improve their piezo pickup performance have a fresh opportunity to save. The Barcus Berry 3000AE Piezo Buffer Preamp with EQ just received a price reduction that brings it below its recent average pricing.
Barcus Berry 3000AE Piezo Buffer Preamp drops to $186.79 - save $22.09. This 11% discount makes the specialized preamp more accessible for musicians who need clean signal processing.
For just $186.79, below its 30-day average of $208.88. The current price sits well under the 90-day average of $217.21, making this a meaningful reduction from recent pricing trends.
While not a record low, this discount represents a solid opportunity for musicians who have been tracking this preamp.
The Barcus Berry 3000AE provides external bass, treble, and volume frequency controls for precise tone shaping. It includes a belt clip for stage mobility and features RCA unbalanced input with 2.2 Meg Ohm impedance.
Technical specs show 0.008% THD at 1kHz and -92 dBu noise floor, delivering clean amplification for piezo pickups. The unit operates on 9 volts at 380 microamps and offers +/- 12 dB bass and treble adjustments at 50Hz and 10kHz respectively.
Best for acoustic musicians using piezo pickups who need onboard EQ control without modifying their instruments. This preamp suits performers who require clean signal buffering for long cable runs or multiple effects chains.
Skip this if you only need basic volume control or if your amplifier already includes sufficient EQ options.
The 3000AE requires external power via 9-volt battery, adding ongoing cost and maintenance. Musicians with active pickups or built-in preamps may find this redundant for their setup.
For $22 less than its recent average, the Barcus Berry 3000AE delivers professional-grade piezo buffering at a competitive price. Acoustic performers needing precise EQ control should consider this discount, while those with simpler needs can wait for deeper seasonal sales.
