It would provide me a "compass".

Here is one of the install I did this week

Your sample sounds good. I don't want to undo my Trance system as I've got it all nicely routed inside the guitar and won't need to touch it again.

I'd continue to work with the red tape especially if you can get more. I finally decided to use epoxy because it seems to yield consistent results that can also be heard in the Larrivee C-03 TE demos. The only criticism I have about using the epoxy is that it yields a lot of bass response (YAY!) but it can be easily EQ'ed to taste, which I haven't yet demoed. My thinking is that it's better to have a good bass response from the guitar/pickup/preamp source and EQ it to taste rather than trying to add bass to a weak bass source signal. This is my current concern with the Ultra Tonic 3.2 which for whatever reason seems to have a low bass response. I'm trying to adjust the DIP switch circuit board to give me more bass but something tells me it may be a futile quest if I somehow botched the installation of the two sensors. I'm going to try a few more DIP switch settings to try to get more bass out of the Ultra Tonic.
