works good for me.
why do you want to remove the mag pup?
just wondering why you don't want to leave it
in. ?Also you have a tonedexter. why not just
bring that to the open mic with whatever pup
you made the wavemaps with.?
obviously the mic will give you the best natural
sound. if the open mic is quiet like you say.
And it's the only one you plan on attending.
then the sm81 is a great choice. if you go to
a loud room noise open mic then the pup preamp tonedexter
would be a better choice.

I'll look into the kk xlr.
I don't want to leave it in since it would require a permanent intall, which would require drilling the end block, which would require sending it to a luthier 300 miles away (due to incompetence from other ones).
I don't have the tonedexter... It could be an upgrade down the road. Would not work with the magmic. But the mic would be useful for the training process or for blending if I choose to go the sbt+mic path instead of the tonedexter path.
