I really don't play plugged in with my acoustic very much, since I have an electric. But there may come a point where I will want to - open mics, etc. I tried the F-30RCE again a few times just to hear how the DTAR system sounds. I still find that the K&K pure mini in my D64 has a better acoustic sound.
And I can't find the thread, but recently there was another discussion about acoustic pickups and someone posted about the "intrusiveness" of the battery bag, the batteries, the volume and tone control hanging in the soundhole, etc. with acoustic under saddle pickups that need them. That's how I feel about the DTAR system!
I am considering having the DTAR removed and replace it with a K&K pure mini. If I do it, it's for both aesthetic and sound quality reasons.
I am loving this guitar, it sounds great, plays great, etc. But here's a related question I've been pondering, and can't recall being discussed before:
Does the battery pack (in this case an actual bag Velcro-ed to the inside of the guitar, right under the neck block) have a negative impact on the unplugged acoustic sound? i.e. it's taking up space in the guitar, cutting down on the sound vibrations, etc. Right? Or not?
