Hello all,

After 35 years of playing, I finally got my first Martin - an 0016 DBR. I'll post pictures as soon as I get a camera.

Anyway, the soundhole has a smaller diameter than a dreadnaught, and so I'm looking for a soundhole pickup that will fit it. (I don't want an under-saddle pickup). Does anyone have any ideas of what might work? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

check out the Dimarzio Super Natural Plus™

Quote:

It installs easily beneath the strings, with shock-absorbing foam lining the inside edges of the mounting brackets to keep the Super Natural Plus™ in place and protect the soundhole. If necessary, the foam can be cut down to accommodate guitars with smaller soundholes.

I would suspect the Dean Markley Pro Mag or any of that series would work as well.
