A pickup unit is used for converting vibrations of strings to electric signals for producing electric tones at good loudness, and the pickup unit includes a bridge assembly stationary to a body of the stringed instrument, vibration-responsive piezoelectric elements secured at the end portions thereof to the bridge assembly and vibration mediators held in contact with the strings and exerting force on the other end portions of the piezoelectric elements; since the vibration mediators have the freedom to move in the direction of the bending in the bridge assembly, the electric signals exactly represent the vibrations of the strings.
