Just because I didn’t say it before: Thanks Mbroady for sharing your apple to motorbike comparison. I love those ‘real world comparisons’. At least it makes clear that a piezo pickup alone can cause ear cancer.
Larry is right, all pickups benefit from being played over a good PA (and some EQ, compression and maybe a tiny bit of reverb). And this can make samples 1 and 2 shine but, to my ears, never sample 3.
