Rick, I think it's time for you to initiate the Righteous Authoritative Pickup Test (R.A.P.T.) to save all we camp followers from throwing away any more of our hard-earned Canadian pesos on inferior products. I suggest you get David Wren of the Twelfth Fret (Toronto's premier acoustic shop, IMHO) to sponsor the event as the Fret carries both systems. (I would suggest that Jason would sponsor the RAPT but I know that no soundperson ever gets paid what they're worth (Did I say that right, Jason?)). The venue would be, of course, CIUT (or would this count as a commercial endorsement?). We,the on-line and FM audience could register our opinions of your transmitted guitar sounds. Thoughts?

P.S. Rick, you have to see my latest love, a blond koa Laskin 12-string with Tam Kearney on the headstock.
