Did you ever report on how these perform?

I would be very happy to put them in your guitar for you after trying them out on my Gretsch copy first :D

Yeah I checked out TV Jones website and they list them at 150 usd each. With freight and GST sting it adds up. Might ask my sister to bring them with her when she comes over this summer.

That's goddam beautiful. Been playing my cheap Takamine a lot lately and wondering how much better a really good acoustic would be. Would I appreciate or recognise the difference etc. Maybe I should just avoid that rabbit hole all together.

To be honest I never thought I'd notice the difference, until I played with other acoustic instruments, and accompanied a singer. It really stuck out, to me at least.
