Default Which pickup?

Hey guys, just wanting a little advice.

I've got a Martin 000-16GT Custom, with EIR back/sides instead of mahogany, so I'm wanting to know which pickup would sound best? Probably be using it most at church through a 16 channel Mackie with floor monitors as well.

Im looking at a K&K PM but someone suggested the Fishman Ellipse Aura. Not sure if I'd need all of that with the Aura, that's why I'm here asking, lol.


All feedback welcome guys! Thanks a lot.

I hear that it's the Highlander iP for best sound and K & K pure western mini for price and ease of install.

I'm looking at the K&K as well, but want to know what other options I have.

I would recommend going for a dual-source pickup for the best sound & versatility. I'd recommend either Anthem SL or Anthem (full-system). Please pm or email me for a quote. THanks.

I have Anthem in my main guitar. To me it's the best-sounding AND the most straight-forward, easiest-to-use, pickup system I've ever used. I'm a fan...
