Default Combine Pickups ?

Can anyone advise.

Ive got a Fishman Rare Earth Blend installed in my guitar but was wondering if it’s possible to install an under saddle Piezo and have it wired to the same jack ?

so correct me if i'm wrong but a lot of endpin
jacks are wired TRS. so if there is only two
wires coming off the REB. then the extra hot
can be used for the hot wire from the new piezo.
These could be blended or run
seperately using outboard gear. But you need
a TRS. cable .

Thanks for this. Yes the REB is wired for stereo.

So the REB has 3 wires ( one mic one pickup one ground)
or does it send one signal blended to
two wires in your endpin .One hot one ground ??
If the latter ( which i suspect) you can do what you want providing
your endpin is trs. You'll have one vacant connection.?

Thanks again,

I’m not sure regarding your question because my REB is fixed in. But I’ll take my guitar into a tech and have him look at it. I think you’re right though because I recall seeing the wiring prior to installation.
