Best sounding acoustic pickup I've used by far. Installation was pretty easy. Gave manufacturer support a 4 because the warranty isn't valid if you install it yourself. I guess I understand that, but still don't like it much. Other than that, no possible complaints. If you have to plug in your acoustic, this is the way to do it.
