Reason for pickup change: Wanted to add a pick-up to this rare guitar. The Pick-up adds so much to the guitar. The tamas were the predecessor to the Ibanez Artwood series in the mid seventies. They were modeled after the Martins of the time and sound every bit as good. You can switch the phase on the pickup also has slide controls for treble bass blend and Mic r pick-up, Volume, Frequency and Notch controls. Easy access to battery

Sound

Perceived output level: Very good with Mic and pick-up
Tone: good all around mids lack somewhat but not to bad
Sonic evaluation: Using it on a Tama TG-80 (Yes the Drum Makers) with my buddys carvin acoustic amp through my yamaha AGStomp

For which styles and positions is this pickup (un)suitable: Suits for most of my styles some artists in my styles it doesn't do so well for but who cares

Overall Rating

Comments: It's a great pick-up but if it were stolen I'd probably go and try to find something better that can match the guitar

On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this pickup a: 8
