Default Budget Pickup Suggestions

Hey all,
Asking for a friend.
Need suggestions for a budget pickup for a Yamaha dreadnought.
Probably needs to be easy to insert and remove with no drilling.
TIA,
John

Note: saw this one on Amazon, Seymour Duncan Woody: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...NNN5Y1TU&psc=1

It'll be hard to find a better option that the Woody for the criteria you gave. If the person doesn't mind a permanent install, a JJB can be purchased for about $50 and sounds really good. Unless one of you are handy with such things, you may need to pay to have it installed. I've installed all of mine and I'm kind of a clutz with tools.
