Reply #11: Fishmans are good. R.L. Baggs are as good but cost less

[no name no slogan]

I've got a Fishman bridge transducer on my nylon-string flamenco guitar and it's fairly decent for a piezo-type pickup. I run it through a Yamaha AG Stomp acoustic guitar processor to give it a little more presence and to add a slight bit of 'verb and chorus to it.

You may want to check on R.L. Baggs, too. They've got several good products and are a little less expensive than Fishman, and sound just as good.

Also, I know Markley makes a wooden "dot" transducer that attaches to the guitar's soundboard for about $60. I've tried it, and it's not bad, considering that a) It's only $60, and b) by attaching something to the soundboard of a guitar, you are naturally limiting its tone.

Best of luck-- it's a bear trying to record an acoustic guitar when you live in a noisy apartment. :thumbsup:
