Hi, If you can find it, I photographed a reso project I built a step at a time. Good info there. I think a disk somewhere under/in the bridge-reso cone assembly is a lot better than a rod or magnetic PU mounted somewhere else. Seems to me that you loose the reso sound with the PU mounted elsewhere. Try to find my pics, they Will help you.

Good luck on your build;

Bob

yeah just need a small hole for the wires to go though, on lowes cones there`s a hole on top which makes it nice for the wires. That pic of that reso bridge went on one of harrison`s reso builds i included a matching buffalo horn nut. Make sure when you stick the disc in between the wood use hot glue. If you go over to the clubhouse and look through my pic`s [ around pages 8-11 ] you`ll see some of the other reso bridges i`ve made that were custom orders.
