I could replace it with the same thing but I'm not a huge fan of that piezo tone and I'm sure acoustic pickups have improved a lot in the past 20 years.

I assume I can still use the Baggs preamp so what might be some good options to look into? I'm open to anything, magnetic, piezo, something else, I just want to get decent acoustic tone when plugged in.

Thanks!
This site has great video reviews on pickups and he's one heck of a player too..I really liked the soundhole pickup DiMarzio DP139..check it out
