Also replaced stock pins with titanium pins. Clarity sustain improvements were big to my ear and the K and K is a winner and can always add an external mic for perfection. When I compared the SJ to the other fine guitars and the since closed Fine Acoustics in Maryland the SJ took the entire inventory to school. It continues to be a wonderful guitar and always brings a smile to my face when I first open the case to get it out. Congrats! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well!

I must admit I'm not much of a fine tuner and tend to keep my guitars "very stock".

Although I do love to play amplified, a pick-up is out of question. And just to show you how obsessive I am, my guitar doesn't even have an end pin! LOL
