Does anyone know what pick up comes stock on these. It looks like there is Barcus Berry Hot Dot transducers on the bridge. The person I bought the guitar from said it had stock electronics....

Forgot yours was a '79. Pretty sure Guild themselves had stopped using the Hot Dots by then in any case, for the OP's edification.Hi
Originally my guitars were without anything.

Guild installed Hot Dots right into the wings of the bridge covered with little inlays, that was the giveaway of the factory Hot-Dot installation.Hello
Even that I do not know what you have - but if they are Barcus Berry Hot Dots, they insist to be fed into as high-impedance input as possible. I'd say 1Mohm minimum. After that everything depends on how good they were mounted.
When I bought my first piezos, they came with a piece of clay-like material that you were supposed to use between the guitar and pickup.
