C'mon, get a proper pickup fitted that does not fall off mid-gig. Honestly Slowy...
Steady on Oleg, this is a lounge rig. If it falls off, anyone within earshot would just assume I'd nodded off.

Oh, fair enuf. I was imagining you playing Losing My Religion with one of your bands. Which would be awesome.

Interesting. Would like to try one, but I don't think I'll be trying the manufacturer's recommended method on my Taylor which doesn't have a poly finish.

Me neither.
The Blutac seems to work fine; just a tiny blob well spread out.
Don't know if it harms the finish though.

Read up on it. Looks like a great lityle unit but my concern would be that it is not loud enough when compared to a traditional acoustic pickup output signal like the ones with the preamp mounted on the side of the guitar
Well we'll just have to put it up to the test then.
I'm confident

Reading up on this again...
We seem to have forgotten about this test
Edit - old age related?

Nope.
