Anthem, dual source?

This isn't true of the SL, the jack there is mono, and integrated with the preamp, so you're stuck with mono. I really wish all manufacturers would just use stereo TRS jacks and allow people to add a 2nd source if they want.

Not entirely true. The SL has a TRSS jack (stereo) according to Baggs tech support. But you are right about the Anthem having a mono jack, and it being easily replaced.

It might be a risky move but how reliant is the Lyric to the circuitry in the jack?

Would it be possible to wire the Lyric to a small rca connector and use it in place of the K&K Silver Bullet as part of K&K's power mix trinity?

That way you'd get K&K PWM, a UST and the Lyric all running to the internal K&K preamp with individual eq's and gains as well as a volume wheel for each pickup.

Might be more bulk than you want in your guitar but if it worked it could be an option.

I wouldn't mess with the Lyric, or Anthem SL. What I was say is that the Anthem mono jack has no circuitry and could be replaced easier.
