<p>Thanks to all for the great info. I plan to add a capacitor and volume pot and see how that works.</p>

<p>Pre amp is certainly the best way to cure feedback but you can try covering your piezo in leather! It`s not perfect but it works to a certain degree. </p>
<p>Most people start with piezo then go on to EQ with under saddle piezo for far better sound and no feedback to speak of.</p>
<p>If it was me, and I am me and I`ve been through the whole thing, I would cover this one in leather and keep it and enjoy it. Then on subsequent builds ( you will build more because it`s the law!) go for EQ and…</p>

<p>I can't really give you a specific recommendation, since I really hate piezos (I'm a magnetic pickup kinda guy). I will say go with a model that has a 5-band EQ though, that makes it easier to turn down the frequency that's causing most of the feedback.</p>
