Piezo pickup on a Starfire 4?

Anybody know if this would work? http://lrbaggs.com/tbridge.htm

I have a 2000 Starfire 4 that I'm curious about doing this mod to.

Thanks

hm, if the size is suitable to the old bridge, you would at least have to drill one or more holes to connect the piezo with the electronics.

if you want do do it, I'd consider to add a midi converter too, since the piezos are there.

the only problem would be to check if all the electronics fit into the hollow body AND to mount it properly, which either way will be pita.

If you're doing it for MIDI, it makes sense to me. But if not - I don't see what someone would gain from having a piezo
on a semi-hollow body electric guitar. They don't have much acoustic tone to begin with.

But that's just me. I have a big arch-top with a magnetic mini-HB. It's loaded with acoustic tone.
But no way I'd put a piezo on it.
