Default Acoustic Pickups

I'm in the process of deciding if these three pickups will work well together on an Ibanez AE style guitar. They are the Seymour Duncan Wavelength Duo - steel string, Trance Audio Amulet stereo, and the Sunrise soundhole. What are your thoughts on each of these pickups? Also haven't removed the stock piezo pickup system.

You would need 2-3 jacks and honestly this would be a massive nightmare to set up live. You might be better off trying something like a magnetic pickup with an internal mic, paired with a passive SBT.

Whats the reason you want 3 pickups?

However, if I would setup a 2 or 3 source system I would exclusively use passive pickups. You will need some device to blend them anyway so why include active pickups with batteries?!

I like the Trance Amulet MV-T. It sounds good and it's easy to install and can be removed to place in another guitar without damage to the system or the current guitar in which it's installed.

I'm guessing he is a David Wilcox fan. David uses many pickups like this together.
