Hi, Folks, I'm modding a jazz guitar that currently has a magnetic pickup in the neck. I'm putting an acoustic pickup (actually a compression pickup) under the bridge to get an acoustic sound. However, I don't have a pre-amp for the pickup, but one is generally recommended. I'm planning to have them wired with a stereo/TRS output jack on the guitar so I can blend them externally. Would the HX stomp be sufficient for this? The idea is to split the signals into the two inputs and then bring the two input paths together. On the acoustic side, I would have an IR as well as a pre-amp model or similar. Would this work out okay? Do I need a pre-amp to amplify the acoustic signal *before* I get to the Helix, or should I be able to balance those two pickups with levels, etc. inside the HX Stomp? Thanks for any help/suggestions. -
Someone might already mention about this before. Here's what I discovered. I think the easiest way to get piezo or acoustic-y sound on your solid body guitar is to play Fender amps or clean amps with low distortion without Cab. I run HD500 directly to Alto ts112. BF Double is pretty good. You don't really need anything else. You can add chorus and reverb to sound better. Anyway, thanks for reading.
