Hello all.

Just wondering what adhesives some of you have used on interior contact pickups. I'm leery of double sided tape and am wondering what kinds of alternatives there are to attach something like a piezo ribbon (PUTW) or the McIntyre feather.

I'm sick and tired of the quack, boominess and dead spot issues of undersaddles and want to use a feedback buster so the soundhole pickups are out.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I have not installed the pickups you mentioned. I have put K&K's in several acoustics. Big fan of the sound and the price. Super glue is the glue of choice. You need to be very careful on placement as removal is very difficult, but not impossible.
