3/16" saddle slot

[Bryan Parris]

Caleb. I stand corrected. Perhaps my experience was unique.

[Bryan Parris]

I had one like this. Super boomy low end. Turned out I had to replace the Element and it was perfect. I can only assume there was a hot spot in the pickup??...

What under saddle pickup could I use with a 3/16" saddle slot? Any ideas? I'd rather not have to fill and recut the slot, but that's a possible ...

Stewmac has some file for truing up the saddle slot. https://www.stewmac.com/Luthier_Tool..._Levelers.html

Thanks Caleb. There are a few examples around with the anthem, but it looks like they've done some major shimming to clear the brace. I'll suggest the...

I was wondering if anyone has put an Anthem in a V-class Taylor? I don't see a place for the preamp with where the bracing is around the soundhole....

[Bryan Parris]

Are you referring to a 1/4" TRSS? Could you point us to one somewhere? I see 1/8" a lot but not 1/4". This has been a discussion on...

[Bryan Parris]

I agree! I'm gonna try this on the next 9V ES I get in. Being able to utilize the battery compartment would be a bonus....

Before you modify your guitar, have you considered trying an outboard preamp like the Session DI or the Para DI? Going straight into a sound board probably...
