Too Cool, I may have to use your Pick guard idea, with the wood insert n all, if you dont mind.

Wow.  Really interesting idea.  Love to see a video to get a sense of the sound!

The saddle extends through the bone plates and touches against the piezo`s on either end. Then I incased them in hot glue. Chambered out the black walnut/ padauk end caps that fit over the piezo`s. I was surprised when I first plugged it in there was no feedback issues like disc`s usually have. So the piezo`s  are picking up the vibration of the saddle.
