I don't recall the tone being too significantly different. Brock: I did try it a long while back but found that it got in the way of where I normally pick/fingerpick.

You mentioned "In other words, in the lower portion of the soundhole, turned 180 degrees so that the 1st string pole is now under the 6th string. This might be an experiment worth trying, but I’d have to remove all of the polepieces and reinstall them in reverse order." Just want to know if you were able to try it? thanks! Hi!

With a little EQ from the Mackie, I'd imagine it can put out a satisfactory amount of bass. Of course everyone has their own tone in their head so YMMV. If you do try an M1 active please stop back and let me know what you think! Kevin: I’ve never used the cool tube preamp so I can’t compare, but the M1 active is a great pickup option.

I am gonna put a LR Baggs M1 Active in my early 60's Gibson Diamond Jubilee. The Gibson has an incredible sound without a pickup. Will I still get that fat and clear sound I am used to with that Takamine Cool Tube, on the Gibson with a M1 active?? I gig with a nice little Powered Mackie PA with sub woofer for my acoustic gigs. Pretty musically stupid, so just wanted some advice from yall. Thanks guys.
