Wondering the advantages and disadvantages.. I recently purchased a pre amp.. Same mode Gitty sells on his website. 7475R I think is the model.
I have a CBG and two CBUkes and was thinking of installing into one or two of them. (if I purchase another one) I'm also about to start a 6 stringer and might think of putting it on that one too.
Does anyone have any opinions or experience with this model or having pre amps?

Along those same line, does anyone have experience using a DI box between a CBG and amp/board?
a DI box will change the impedence and condition your signal for a desk but there is little in the way of EQ so its in the hands of your sound man, ive always found that a small amp mic'd up (even just a few watts) give you a much bigger tone and more control
I have one of those from Gitty but have not used it. I plan on doing what someone posted in here about mounting it in a small box instead of building it into one guitar, so then I can plug any guitar into it. An EQ box between guitar and amp.
id be tempted with a buffer rather than a pre amp .. most of the issues with piezos sounding thin are due to impedence miss matches.
like this one from the EPIC POODLE PARTS.
