What is the s/n of the pickup? Of the preamp? Of the amp? The end to
end system? If the system isnt any better than about 60dB, you will
need a gate if recording. If you are playing in a smoky honky tonk
where you cant hear yourself play over the rest of the noise, who cares.

No Ley Line detector?

But I did some geetar mods some 20 years ago, by putting in active
electronics in the guitar, very quite indeed. but pre surface mount .
Big XLR on the side, iso feeds of each pickup.

The muso couldnt cope, too clean!
