Is all super glue equal?

Biggest question, placement of the high string transducer. Between e and b or aligned with the e?
I don't believe the real issue is how hard it is to do mechanically, as you've discovered it's not brain surgery. The real issue is knowing exactly where to place those 3 pads to minimize quack and excess low mids. The first one I owned was installed by a reputable luthier, but it never really seemed to sound right, sound men had a hard time dialing it in. The second one I'm using now was installed by someone who's installed hundreds and hundreds of them. This one has zero quack and seems to draw compliments heard through all kinds of systems.
