Fishman Onboard Aura - narrow pickup Review

Fishman Onboard Aura - narrow pickup
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am a proud owner of Martin JC-16RGTE-Aura.
My acoustic-electric guitar came with this pickup system.
I mainly play contemporary christian music for my church.
I love my guitar's sound unplugged, but I still remember the first time I plugged this guitar to the main system.
Wow, the sound of this guitar just blew everyone away!
My friend who has Taylor 515CE heard the sound of my guitar unplugged and said "so.. that's Martin?"
He was not impressed much. However, when he heard this guitar being played plugged in to the system, he was simply wordless.
It has built in tuner, which is very easy to use, and the round dial on the left changes the tone of the guitar with different presets.
I have not fully played with this baby (have not hooked it up to the computer yet), but I am so eager to see what else this pickup system has for me.
I had no idea that this pickup system was so expensive.
I am just happy that my guitar came with this amazing system.
Thanks Martin!

LR Baggs Venue DI Direct Box Review

I would have given this product five stars if the tuner stomp function was 100% reliable, which it isn't.
Otherwise, Baggs has created a great update to it's classic Para-Acoustic D.I.
I love the easily accessible knobs, in contrast to the Para's harder to reach (especially the gain control) knobs. However, the Venue does have one out-of-reach knob, and that is the adjuster for the 0-9db boost "stomp" function, which is a great feature on this pedal and one I use frequently during performance. I just wish I could adjust the db setting more easily; it's the one knob that is hard to access. Bummer.
The tuner issue I mentioned is the following: about 15% of the time (which is way too often), when I stomp the mute/tuner switch, the signal indeed mutes, but the tuner does not light up and engage. I have to stomp and re-stomp several times to activate the tuner when this occurs. Lame and annoying onstage.
Overall tone of the Venue is meaty and strong -- as good if not better than what I had with the Para, which I used for years before acquiring the Venue. I am happy with this product, but I really could use a stomp tuner that activates when it's stomped, 100% of the time.

Peterson Suction Cup Tuner Pickup Review

The good thing about it is that is very cheap, the bad thing about it is
that is very "cheap". I tried putting it on my violin and it doesn't stick,
the "suction" apparently doesn't work.
