Man. That's such a simple, good idea. I'm mad at myself for not thinking of it. The ES jack is TRS already so you can plug in a TRS-XLR cord and run a balanced signal, which I never do. It should be pretty straightforward to wire the RE into the ring and bypass this whole "where to drill another hole in my guitar" question. Thank you, Mando!
The Taylor TRS jack with the ES1 system is balanced, if you disconnect one of the leads (to hook up the other pickup to the contact), you may get noise/hum.
