i would suggest getting the guitar without electronics. I hate guitars with a hole cut in the side. it will only cause problems in the long run. look at the trend with taylor's new system. you want something that is less intrusive. LR Baggs makes a mixer system with a mic and undersaddle pickup that has all the controls mounted right under the soundhole so that it is hidden and does not require an huge barn door to be cut into the guitar. The jack hole doesnt matter because it should go through the tail block.
