The reason stuff like the Aura and other PUs from other makes come about is because the originals SUCK.
I'm not getting drawn into petty side arguments, not interested in what Baggs or Fishman are up to in this context. Look, some companies operate a programme of 'continuous development', others are are forced into upgrading a system that basically (to use US phraseology) sucks. That - in my opinion - means Taylor's ES. I love Taylor guitars. I think the ES system was premature and in need of upgrading right from the start. Looking forwards to the day when Taylor launch a preamp system that rivals Yamaha's brilliant, market leading SRT system.
