I believe it is Darren Brown that make his piezo pickups so they are in the bridge so far (above soundboard) that they don't actually touch the soundboard(top) of the guitar. I would think this would pick up a more pure string sound. Intersting.... What do you think?

pure string sound? no such thing when the strings are attached to something...
piezos never ever sound just like the acoustic sound of an unamplified Git. , but we are so used to "acoustic/electric" sound of piezo equipped guitars that we accept it as "acoustic"....
It is possible to build bridge pickups that have no feedback and little "noise"....

I'm glad I found this. I was just asking about this sort of thing in another group. Your designs are different than the one I was asking about, but the same principle.
I have been thinking of making something along these lines based on the design I saw. Since it will only be my second guitar, and first "electric" build, I want to make sure I'm understanding right that the piezos inside these bridges do not touch the body of the guitar at all?
