Hi can anyone tell me what drill bit would need for the jack plug to be installed and the little hole through the saddle when installing a misi please?
I just watched the video and was surprised that the slot had to be routed, could sanding down the saddle do the same job. I realize that doing it the router way would be quicker, but I was hoping to do it myself and I don't have the router or the jig.
Getting the sensor through the hole took some finesse. First I tried fishing line but had nothing but frustration. Ended up using some stainless steel single strand fishing leader wire (just like how Joe installed it in the Kanilea video using thin copper wire) to fish it thru. MUCH easier!
This is a new ukulele pickup from LR Baggs. The UST has a little fitting with a hole in the end of it eliminating all this hassle we've been talking about. Unlike the MiSi it takes a tiny coin-type battery (lasts 300 hours) and has a volume control. I should have my samples in a few days and let you know what I think of them. It looks promising.

Hi Chuck, have you managed to take the new Baggs Five-O pickups through their paces as yet?
