Get yourself a powered peg winder ... de/retune quickly without the added hand stress to help keep your hands healthy and playing longer :) But thanks for making the vid and sharing .

Good how to video but the background music track was too loud and annoying. I could’ve turned it down but I was interested in what you were saying.

[@zolar55]

Very informative!nice music too!

[@im58woody]

Mitch do you think the HiFi would be a good option to add to my T5z Classic Dlx? I don’t like the acoustic tone from Taylor’s acoustic position. Nice work on the video.

Hey thank you Chris! I used to have a T5… one of the many guitars in my photo-collage of “used to owns”. I miss that guitar!! My concern would be the install. You’d have to have some really specific tools to get the transducers in place. You might consider trying something like the Baggs VoicePrint DI where you could do some acoustic shaping before doing an actual install…???

@@mitchbohannon259 I have been following you for a long time now on Worship Musician Magazine and I bought the cut capo for just having fun. I’m not completely sold on the HiFi. I am also considering the Baggs Anthem SL or an under saddle pickup like a Baggs Element which I have installed in a couple different guitars.

[@im58woody]

I’m not a fan of IR’s. I bought a well known and popular brand and it just doesn’t work for me. I’m leaning toward the Anthem SL but the simplicity of the HiFi is enticing.

[@mitchbohannon259]

@@im58woody yes I have installed all Baggs systems in my guitars. I have the Anthem SL in several of them. I prefer the Anthem to just the element by itself as a piezo alone can sound a bit Quacky. The HiFi is really a “mic’d” sound without the feedback issues.

I did this in a j200 too and it’s not good

[@mitchbohannon259]

I'm surprised you're not pleased. I have had excellent results with it

[@timothymeadows8326]

I've been watching vids on this pickup sys for my J200, but they still have that piezo sound from what I can tell. Is that what you mean by it not being good ?
