Though I havent heard either in the guitar, and cant really comment, I will say that B-Bands are SICK.

But its not like you'll go wrong with the fishman, either. Its really a win-win situation.

How do you like the D-16R?
I was looking at them and found them to have nice sound. Also where did you pick yours up from?
