Members Verence Posted September 7, 2007 Members Posted September 7, 2007 I'm looking for something that has a humbucker at the neck, a Piezo (or similar pickup), and a pan knob to mix the two. Ideally it should sound good unplugged, too. IS there such an animal?
Members garthman Posted September 7, 2007 Members Posted September 7, 2007 Crafter do this:www.crafterguitars.com/gallery_acoustic/sat_mgd.phpI've not tried it so cannot comment on how it plays and sound but I own a Crafter dreadnought (which is excellent) and played several of their other models (which were also extremely good guitars) so it should be OK.

Members Tony Burns Posted September 7, 2007 Members Posted September 7, 2007 De armond ( think thats how its spelled ) makes a floating pickup for Archtops that might be retro fitted to an acoustic- but being a true pick-up you might have to use steel strings ( like electric ) Something for you to check out .
Members moctzal Posted September 7, 2007 Members Posted September 7, 2007 I can't think of anything factory. The T5 and the Crafter are both more semi-acoustics. There's another thinline acoustic made by Wechter called the Pathmaker, but again it lacks somewhat acoustically. Another thing you might be able to do is use a piezo equipped guitar and also have a fishman rare earth installed with a preamp. That way it'd be dual sourced and you'd have two sets of controls to blend the two pickups (you could also get a humbucker equipped guitar and have a piezo and preamp added too).
Members TheTool Posted September 7, 2007 Members Posted September 7, 2007 You're more likely to find guitars with a single coil rather than a peizo, but they are out there. Most of the main maunfacturers will do one Freashman, Takamine, Cort, Tanglewood, Taylor... etc etc
Members Verence Posted September 8, 2007 Author Members Posted September 8, 2007 Ah, that's sad, I found a guitar with every feature I wanted, but it's a Jay Turser.
