Works as described.
Works as described. Solder blobs a bit big but doesn't affect performance

Cheap wires - difficult to strip. Not very robust soldering on the piezo. Ok for an arduino project but not for a guitar pickup.
Very difficult to use - the wires are tough to strip, they cut very easily. If you do strip them, the strands of copper inside break easily.Best practice is to put them into a butt joint connector, or heat-shrink as soon as possible after soldering. The soldered joint on the actual piezo is also weak, and the wires will break away quickly if you wiggle the wires. A tiny drop of hotglue where the wire coating meets the solder can help add strength.I guess you can remove the wires and put on your own, however it is a small contact area to solder so it is very fiddly.For small projects the sheer amount of piezos this deal is just OK, but for something like a guitar pickup I would look elsewhere for a more robust offering with pre-soldered connections.

Delivery was very prompt & piezos were well packaged.
I haven't had a chance to try them yet. I purchased them in order to make my own head & rim triggers for electronic drums; or rather the conversion of a Ludwig Accent-Custom (2007) to a 7 piece e-kit.I'm sure they will work fine, I went with these as they had nice long lead-wires on them. I will probably reinforce the solder points with hot-glue. The lead-wires will be sleeved in shrink-fit tubing and the head-piezos themselves will first be 'sandwiched' between 2 pieces of 1mm foam rubber and then placed between two discs of 25mm diameter foam and affixed to the top of a L-bracket inside the drum-shell. These will then be connected to 1/4 stereo-jack sockets which mount through the drum-shell. All very minimalist. The drums themselves are concert-toms with very shallow depths.I may pick up the larger 35mm piezos for the shell-mount (rim-trigger) from the same supplier.

Maybe I'll build my own electric drum kit
Kick drum pedal on electric drum kit wasn't working. Took it apart, had one of these in. Replaced it (with a little wire snipping and soldering) and now the pedal works perfectly and I have 14 more spares...
