Sorry to bring back from the dead.
I dont agree that 6 piezos are useless
I actually think 2 on the bridge base is.... no flames intended
having built a 2 piezo for a bridge, and then adding 1 piezo per each saddle, where the string goes over the top of the piezo makes a whole world of difference. I have built this set up, so it has 8 piezos total, and I can turn each one off at will. I tested the 6 string pickups vs the 2 picking up bridge vibrations... the bridge vibrations sound horrible.
The 2 piezos to the bridge sounds weak and air-y... individual piezos on each string drive a far stronger signal and sound more articulated.
All this was tested WITHOUT a preamp.
I also have another use for each string pickup. I wired the guitar up in stereo and I have micro switches to conrol which strings are on what stereo pan side.
I can make string 1,3,5 on the left, 2,4,6 on the right.
or 1,2,3 Left and 4,5,6 right or any other combo you can think of.
I can do 1,2,3,4 Left and 3,4,5,6 right which puts 3 and 4 in the middle/or both sides sort of.
Who cares? I dont know. Maybe someone would find it cool. I did.
