All you suggest would work, however I am budget minded too., A rod piezo in the biscuit, with a little preamp would capture the reso sound well.,.,for me, I'd go with a flatbucker made for 6 string, and when I say flatbucker, I mean the brand of your choice. Probably 10 or makers build a good product. So a flatpup, or wicked bucker, or what ever brand suits you.,.,I am uber frugal, so I buy the MGB version, probably made in China.,,.plenty of good ones built in the USA.,.,

Thanks for the fast reply Jerry, and awesome name (My Dad's name)!

I have a few rods floating around from standard acoustics and whatnot, however this is my first Reso

How would you mount it to the biscuit?

normally the rod goes right under the saddle, just like an acoustic .,.,hole in the middle of the saddle slot for the wire, that threads thru the cone. Something similar if you have a spider cone .,
