I have a D-16RGT and I don't know whether to get the Fishman Matrix Natural II or the B-Band A1 w/ AST combo pack. Will you guys help me choose. Alright thanks.

Though I havent heard either in the guitar, and cant really comment, I will say that B-Bands are SICK.

But its not like you'll go wrong with the fishman, either. Its really a win-win situation.

all about money. i have fishman pickups in my taylor and they're kick ass. never heard the B-bands so i can't comment on those. but from mbgreen saying that they're awesome, i would think that its preference and money......try em out! don't know how....but try em! haha.

I also have a D16-RGT and just installed a B-Band A1 w/ AST combo....it really does sound amazing. My sound card sucks or else there would clips up everyday....basically....it sounds amazing

How do you like the D-16R?
I was looking at them and found them to have nice sound. Also where did you pick yours up from?
