Title: QUESTION - SOUNDHOLE PICKUP FOR RW SPEC EDITION PARLOUR
Post by: ohiopicker on February 27, 2007, 06:51:05 PM

Greetings!

Request help for a newbie, please. I want to amplify my RW Special Edition Parlour via a soundhole pickup, so that the guitar does not have to be modified. Of course, the soundhole is only 3.5" Does anyone know from personal experience which, if any soundhole pickup will fit?

Thanks

I think I've seen a Baggs M1 modified to fit a Parlor.

I use a Baggs M1 in my Parlor on a temporary basis and without any modifications. You have to remove one of the moveable side clamps to insert the pickup and then replace it after the pickup is in place. So instead of being a one minute install it is a five minute install. And I have long slender fingers.

Thanks Guys! While I may resort to this, I am hoping to find that a Bill Lawrence will snap into the soundhole, or the back of a Dean Markley can be cut down inconspicuously.  I don't want to mod the guitar if I don't have to!
