Replace Takamine factory CT4B-II with StagePro Anthem?

[douglsmith]

I'm wondering if it would be possible to replace my factory installed Takamine CT4B-II preamp / pickup with the StagePro Anthem in the same hole? I'm not finding any specs or installation information on the site for the StagePro Anthem to even measure.

When I pull out the built-in preamp, I'm measure the hole to be about 2.5" x just under 3". There's a pretty good curve in the area it's installed so I would guess that to be a factor as well. I've attached some photos.

The Stage Pro Anthem isn't as wide as the Tak preamp, so it would take a little creative work to adapt the Stage Pro to that hole. I've seen it done before though.

If you want to email me at [email protected], I can send you a template for the Stage Pro so you can see the exact dimensions.
