SNAGG RFID Microchip: effective RFID-based instrument theft protection!
This kit contains a pack of 6 SNAGG RFID Microchips, assorted stickers and installation instructions.
How it works: A tiny, undetectable RFID chip is permanently implanted inside your instrument. It is impossible to remove the SNAGG RFID Microchip theft prevention device without destroying the instrument, therefore making it useless to thieves. When activated by an RFID scanner, the chip transmits a unique code that can be tracked right back to you. It's that simple!
If stolen or lost, your missing instrument can be scanned by dealers or law enforcement and the SNAGG RFID Microchip will positively identify it as belonging to you, even if the thief has removed or altered the instrument's original serial number.
Your odds of recovering a lost or stolen instrument are not good. You'll want every advantage you can get!
A worldwide network at your service! The SNAGG RFID Microchip provides positive identification of your prized guitar, bass, banjo, mandolin or violin, etc... Also works with amps & studio equipment! Once installed, you simply register your SNAGG-equipped instrument with the SNAGG website. Registration is free and you stay registered for life. If you sell your instrument, you can easily (and officially) transfer your registration to the next owner directly from the SNAGG website.
SNAGG maintains the most complete worldwide database for ownership history and recovery of registered musical instruments. If your instrument is stolen or lost, log on to the SNAGG web site and report the event. Your report becomes immediately available to all SNAGG site users (owners, dealers & law enforcement) so they can help you recovering it!
SNAGG RFID Microchip prevention devices are factory-installed in Carvin, Baker, DeTemple and Fender Custom Shop guitars. SNAGG has enlisted the aid of the California Secondhand Dealer Investigators Association and the National Association of Property Recovery Investigators in the design of SNAGG's internet database.
The SNAGG Microchip requires no onboard power source, and won't affect the sound of even the most delicate instruments. Installation is simple, typically requiring only a 3/32" drill bit, epoxy or super glue, and a round toothpick as filler. The chip can be installed in an existing screw hole that's been deepened, or in an endblock, for example. The chip should be positioned to allow 2-3 inches scanning distance. The installation is permanent and will not be visible to a thief.
Privacy statement: The SNAGG Microchip is not a GPS tracking device.
