The Godin is a well made and great sounding electric uke....The new Koolau solid electrics are going to be great. But me...lol...this is the bling I need

I tend to agree with that. Godin has a ton of experience with pickups and eq's - in my opinion they were the first to get really natural tone out of a nylon-string electric guitar. I also like very much the idea that the pickups are in individual saddles so the bridge is compensated for good intonation. The only thing that would be even better was if they were actually adjustable....but I think the Multiuke will have the better pick-up.

This has definitely jumped to the top of my short list for my next uke!

I've put a lot of MiSis and BBands into my ukes and they're great. This just gives a cleaner voice to the uke while minimizing irritants like body noise and feedback.
If your referring to our recording then the the "war paint" I guess would be the LR Baggs amp it's going into. I ran into an apogee but with the gain on zero because that gain is very compressed. It's simply an interface for my purpose. The second channel mic picks up the acoustic nuances that aren't carried through the signal but that you will hear in real life. My sample had no post processing, eq, effects, or compression besides what happens at upload.
With an electric instrument the pickup is one part of the equation. Either way you look at it the sound will be affected by the quality of what you run it through.
As far as the Misi thud, they now use the new LR Baggs 5.0 piezo strip (as opposed to the old baggs element) and it's improved immensely.
Those RCA individual pickups can be a pain
Tejastani: The G string bridge sits a touch higher than the C. Looks to me it was created with a low G in mind.
You would have to stay with reentrant tuning and it wouldn't take well to linear tuning.
