Piezo bridge

[XLayaR]

Hey guys, really interested to get the sound but I don't quite understand the system. How would I transform my bridge into a piezo bridge? Do I need to switch pups? What about the switch for the piezo, how does it tie in to all of it.

Thanks guys, really wanna know what its all about

nope you just need the bridge, the piezo pickups are in the saddles.
there's also extra wiring on a piezo bridge
and on my jp6 there's an onboard preamp

most piezo guitars use a 3 way switch,

pos1 being piezo only
pos2 piezo and magnetic
pos3 magnetic only

Oh means I have to just change the bridge and add saddles to my elec?

How much would changing to one of these cost?

 

[teokiatuan]

the piezo bridge will include the saddles

around 400-500sgd new,depending on model
