Acoustic guitar pickup

Anyone got a recommendation for an acoustic guitar pickup?

Something budget, but not to arse sounding.

I've come across SD Woody pickups that look interesting...

What kind of guitar, what kind of application?

The woody or the Dean Markley equivalent are good, but there are lots of more permanent and/or better sounding alternatives like the LR Baggs iBeam.

It's an ashton DM-65

and it's just so i can occasionally plug the guitar in for some extra noise. It's more important to be able to plug in to a regular guitar amp than to reproduce the acoustic sound.

I'd prefer a permanent setup.

Just looked at the iBeam, but that's stretching the budget a bit

Well, I could probably rustle up an Ashton piezo/EQ and install it, or any of the other worthy options. PM me with your budget and needs.
