Why spend hundreds on a pick up system when you can get this? This is my first time installing a pick up on an acoustic. It took about 2 hours and with careful measuring and cutting with a Dremel I ended up with a professional looking finish. The sound is really impressive for a pick up of this price. I've tried different settings as you can exclude the mic and have all piezo or vice versa or somewhere in the middle. The tuner is accurate too. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this. If you're unsure how to fit as I was, check out the instructional you tube video featuring this exact system. Brilliant!

It all works and sounds good, but the only way to turn preamp off is to remove battery. Plus the 3 pin socket is crackerly, but I have ordered a new lead just in case the fault is with me. Tuner works and is easy to use. For the ££ it dirt cheap and works, albeit the on/off control. Moral of story, check before you cut, which I did, but not the on/off which.

A great pickup and tuner system with seperate Mic as well as the Bridge Pick up. Works very well and loads of sound variations. So long as you are competent at fitting these type of pickups as need to make accurate large hole on top side of guitar for controls and at base of guitar for battery compartment/output jacks. I would recommend this pickup system for any acoustic guitar with wide body. Both nylon or steel stringed guitars will be good. Just check the curve position is right before marking out and cutting, for both pickups and battery compartment, jack output.

This is an OK all-around acoustic preamp with a built-in microphone and a pickup blend control. I actually installed this system on an older Ibanez entry level guitar that had an old ibanez/fishman system. The stock system didn't work and so the new preamp came in pretty handy. It even came with a brand new piezo pickup! The installation was hard though due to the flat top of this system. A curved preamp case would be the best for this application but still, I managed to fit it in.

This little device is amazing value for money. I fitted it to my Tanglewwod Resonator guitar which by it's nature is possibly a more difficult guitar to amplify than a straight forward acoustic guitar. The guitar sounds great through my Vox amp, with good control over volume and tone, with no feed back. However, the inbuilt tuner does not function very well, only picking up strings intermittently. I do not believe this is a fault with the unit, more the guitars resonator construction confusing the signal. Cutting the hole in the guitar to take the unit is a scary job, but after checking and double checking cutout dimensions I managed to do the job OK. A self adhesive cutout template of the hole required would have been a nice inclusion to have had with the unit.
