Graphtech piezo and MIDI stuff installed into my brown frankenstein guitar.   

Just TODAY plugged this up to the synth and tried out this piezo sound.  It's the pickups built into the saddles of the Floyd Rose bridge.  The synth only powers the piezos so I have to have the 13 pin cable plugged into the synth to do the piezos.  It sounds kind of like an acoustic but not like a nice real acoustic that is miked up nicely.  Sounds like an average acoustic using some built in preamp.  But... short of buying a really nice acoustic and destroying my fingers with huge strings, I guess this and triggering a MIDI version once I get a better synth will have to do.
