what plug can I get for my Alvarez PD80sc

[Ralph124C41]

I may buy a used Alvarez PD80SC to use at some local open mics. It has the stock 600T Mark II pickup system which has an piezo electric pickup. It also has an auxiliary slot to allow me to add an additional pickup so I'm thinking of just installing a soundhole pickup. However the system's input for the auxiliary is a 1/8-inch input and most soundhole pickups seem to have the 1/4 plug.

What plug can I use, a standard converter but most of those are stereo so will that be compatible with the system.

THis older 600T Mark II system was intended to be used with one of two Alvarez pickups, a soundhole model and an interior microphone model ... both of which I can't find online to purchase. Or maybe there is an soundhole pickup I could use that does have the 1/8-inch output.

So suggestions ...?

You're welcome. I read about it earlier today or yesterday.

BTW, I also noted GFS sells soundhole pickups with a 3.5 mm plug. They come in two "flavors" ... bubinga wood or zebra wood. I would rather have the interior microphone ... if it works OK. I've owned a couple of soundhole pickups and they worked ... but they didn't sound like my acoustic.

My Takamine sounds great with its auxiliary transducer. I'd go with this

That's also a possiblity.

Btw, I still have somewhere (I think) a Barcus-Berry "dot" but I lost the cable years and years ago. I wrote the company and was told they don't have that anymore and to try Radio Shack (this shows how long ago this way). I've tried a slew of cords but none fits correctly.
