Thanks folks. My 9 year old son has claimed it, that is, until I make a better one, he says. I'm still tweaking the piezo placement. The piezo is sandwiched inbetween some wood, but the wood is touching the neck-thru and you can hear fretting noise, like slides and swishes. So I relieved the neck-thru another 1/8 inch. But decided to reinforce it underneath with one of my dulcimer strum-hollow cutouts - whew, now I know why I kept those. I also replaced the rosewood bridge with a threaded rod since it sounds better.
