thats awesome. do they work well? and where does the chord go? out where you attach your strap?

i know several others that i have seen do come out the same rear hole for your strap. I dont have one, but my brother does and it sounds pretty good. Strap still hooks up the same and everything. Might be worth a shot.

the one I posted is a removable pickup. It fits snug in the guitar soundhole and when you don't have the need to be amplified you can take it out. The chord just kinda hangs out the front of your guitar.... when i used to use one I would jsut put some slack in the chord and then route it back up through where my strap hooked up to the guitar.

They're pretty good.... I mean some sound better than others, but I much prefer having a pickup installed. But they do all right if you don't want to spend the change to get a Fishman put in. I'd definitely play one before you buy one though!
