Hello, I am having a guitar built by a luthier friend of mine. I am playing with the idea of putting a hex pickup in it to utilize my GR55 but I want to keep the holes and visual impact down to a minimum. I installed the GK kit in my strat and it works great but I am not crazy about routing holes into this next guitar. What are the least invasive options? Any insight is appreciated!

Thanks for the reply. I play a bit of everything, reggae, jazz, blues, rock, bluegrass but been playing mostly blues and funk lately. I like the godin style but I am using a titanium bridge for this project and am unsure how I would use the piezo system without using a specialized bridge. I may just ditch the idea of using this next guitar as a midi and use my trusty frankenstrat for the midi stuff, I have good results plugging another guitar into the 1/4 input of the strat for cosm modeling. Also looking at possibly trying a kemper out but not sure if I can afford it yet.

If Palm muting, and  Rock / Blues tones from a Guitar Modeling system ( VG-99 / GP-10)  are important  - get a Mag Hex PU system
