Finally getting around to my first resonator after getting several requested "regular" builds finished and had a question. Does the sound from a reso benefit more from the vibration on the box and cone? Or can you get the sound you want from a magnetic pickup? Or does it matter?
Imagining a piezo might be better, but I have a flat-pup lying around that I'm dying to stick on something. Thanks for posting your pics on here also. I've gotten some good ideas about neck strength off of them.

depends how Flat.. Most that I've placed in are a pain in the A$$ to mount because of the thickness of the pup and how much work you have to do under the lids to support the neck..But they do sound good...
Dave, would the mag pup need to have 'something' influencing it's magnetic field, in order to produce sound?
I've been thinking a piezo might be at least easier to use than a mag/coil pup...
but I know nothing. :-)
Best
