Kind of aggravating the way my UST dulled the acoustic tone of my Martin D28 when it was installed under the saddle. Got it to use with an Aura modeler. It's an interesting toy and many people like it. There is also the DTAR Mama Bear. While fun to screw around with, I haven't bonded with the Aura but it may be worth a shot if you can borrow one.

I agree with Spook. Messes with acoustic tone too much. No more USTs for me. I will try those K&K things that stick on under the bridge, that everyone seems to rave about.
