What would happen if I installed the amplifier directly into the cigar box of a guitar? Would it make an instrument that blasts sound directly from it or would something make it not work? Like maybe some crazy feedback when the sound hits the piezo?
Thanks

One big issue is a speaker.
Little speakers tend to distort too much and can sound bad, but they're easier to find space for.
Bigger(6 inch and up) speakers sound much better, but take up a lot of space and weigh more.
Speakers need depth to enhance sound and in order to do that the body needs to be thick.
Hooked up a L,386 amp circuit module to a small flatscreen tv speaker…worked out pretty good…gain is set to high on circuit board…Onyehn…about 11 bucks for ten
are you going to mount a speaker in there too? its been done before..
if just the amp then i suppose the speaker output would go to the jack and be fed to a cabinet....
if just the peramp like on an acoustic guitar then it will work and also tame the piezo a lot.
one thing though , if you put an amp and speaker in the box then accoustic sound will suffer and the thing will be heavy ! you could buile the amp and speaker into a small belt mounted box like a pignose....
Yea, you wire the pickup to go straight through on one jack & wire the pickup to go through the amp on another jack. This way, you can play through to a separate amp or use the built in amp for a preamplifier between the two amps? Not a bad idea to shield the amp or use shielded wire, this may get noisy?
