Well Bill, thanks for speaking up! I have just put one of the "pick-up the world" pick-ups on my 'reconfigured" Martin Backpacker (now more acuratel described as a dulcitar). The sound is truely excellent, and I was trying to find the forum thread in which we discussed that issue - but haven't found it yet ... I wanted to update it. That, in fact, is how I came across this one and realized I should update this one as well.

I never would have guessed you put a pick-up in a banjo and have a great banjo sound ... and you're right the fishman is excellent. So if the 'pick-up the world' pick up is even better, I'd be really impressed. I too use an open back; a long neck Vega. Lovely sounding instrument, so I was thrilled that the fishman captured the quality.

Bye the way your blue clicky didn't work, but I believe this one does. I am impressed with the advances in sound engineering over the last 20 years!
