i want to buy a new pick up(acoustic). I want to try and look on ebay for a good deal but I have no idea what I'm looking for. Do I need a preamp and an eq?? or what?? Could someone just describe to me a good set up. I'm talking for an expensive guitar. I know fishman is the best, but what do I need for a complete set up? Thanks guys and gals.

thanks shane. So if I bought the Natural II, would I need to buy a blender or pre amp? or is that optional? I kind of have a problem with cutting into the side of my guitar.

no. just leave the blender off. let someone else do the sound/tone control, or just set it how you want it before/between songs. I wouldn't cut on any guitar without utmost necessity.

Yep that's all you need.
Just a warning, the natural II is good but can be quite bright. Dave uses it in his Taylors so that he can cut through the whole band.
So if you're looking for a nice warm sound, I might look around a bit more.

I did get a Fishman Neo-D soundhole pickup. It's only about 70 bucks, and it's got actualy a pretty good sound. For the price, it's great. It's not as good as the more expensive ones, but it's great for the price. Check it out.

I'm not wanting to get a soundhole pickup, but thanks!

I recommend the B-Band AST+A1 combo.
