that's the guitar i have :D i put a cheap martin pickup in mine, can't even remember what it is, but that guitar is 10 x better MICed anyway, so you really don't need to spend that much on good pickups IMO

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.
