I just got this pickup for $110 on ebay and had it installed yesterday. It is by far the best soundhole pickup I've used. Nearly exact reproduction. I highly recomend this for anyone looking for a easy to install/remove pickup.

It was $30, It was just a matter of a drill through the end pin.

I'll post a clip tonight when I get home, I'm at work right now. My sound card sucks and I just have a Bheringer mixer but it still might sound good. I haven't tried my recording with it yet. It sound great through my Ultracoustic amp. No feed back or buzz, and I even have floresent lighting.

Here's a clip I threw together after work. I don't think its sounds too bad. Its hooked directly into my mic jack on my computer. It has a touch of reverb but other than that its stock.

Any chance we could hear this without the reverb?

Don't want to take away from your thread Eliot, but for anybody looking for some sound clips of various pickups, here is a page I found a while ago that has quite a few clips of different pickups on different guitars played in different styles of music:
