Has anyone put a piezo on a Y2d? Which model/brand? What is your impression of the sound quality of said brand? Finally, did you find it to be a direct drop in replacement as far as the mounting posts are concerned?

Thanks for the help.

put a fishman power bridge on mine. works great with the power chip by fishman.
there are pots out there which reduce fom the big srew size to the small one.
but can't tell you were i got them, because it is too long ago.
changed the tone pot to a push pull for activation the piezo.

Thanks - Do you know what the saddle radius is on the power bridge? Info seems to be elusive for that one. Did you use the same posts from the Y2d or did the mounting hardware need to be changed?

Edit: I got it, you meant posts instead of pots, right. So some modification is necessary... Thanks Joe

ups, yes, you are right.

the hardest thing for your mind is, you need to drill a little hole for the piezo-cable. a luthier did this for me, you don't even see it now. great work he did on this.

about the radius - don't ask me i have no clue. it works for me, and that´s the thing that matters :)
