From my experience the best affordable plug and play system is the LR baggs Anthem SL. Used I have seen them for as little as $120. And since this is going in a dedicated gig guitar there should be no concern about the braided UST altering the acoustic sound of the guitar.

Jack, I know that you are really particular about you pickups, but in my opinion the problem with the Sonotone is the braided UST. You could try replacing the UST with a solid Fishman Matrix. Russo's Music has one on Reverb for $76.
There is also someone on the Grear Page who posted that they connected a three sensor JJB to the Sonotone pre-amp and he says that it sounds like a miracle. |

I don't care about the acoustic sound....all my guitars are used for gigs or plugged in.

Purists won't like this one, but I put a Fishman neo d. In a Yamaha FG 820 and have no probs with it. They run 40-50 bucks. I cut the cord and installed a endpin jack to eliminate that cord out the sound hole.
