For electrics rather than acoustics. the guitar id be thinking about doing it too has a floyd rose but am also thinking about doing it too my set bridge (mod-job im workin on atm) asuming its possible Also id only really want it going via the same output jack as the standard pickups and having a switch to go between the two. and just to be that lil extra bit anoying i use active pickups if itd make a difference  | |

  | Well everything you've linked there is an acoustic bit of kit. Graphtech have just released an OFR pre-loaded with piezo saddles, but its to OFR specs and dimnsions and may not fit your current stud spacing. "Set bridge"? TOM's do exist that are also preloaded with piezo elements, as are fender style bridges...you need to be more exact here man. As for wiring, yes it can be done and it isn't especially hard. You see it on and of the Ibanez RG----X's and S---X's - they have an option to run the piezo from output B or blend it with the magnetic signal to output A. |

| Well, tell me what you want to know and I'll help you man! But words like "set bridge" help me none, because I don't even know what it means.  Say it in simple terms and I'll help you out buddy, but you're using references I don't recognise. |
