Hello from London.

I've had a really interesting time reading through all the forums. There's a wealth of information here....

I have a question.

recently acquired an Ovation 1990 Collectors edition. Beautiful Birds Eye maple top. Gorgeous guitar.

It had a replacement bone saddle fitted which sounds great. Purely acoustic, no piezo.

I would like to reinstate the pickup/preamp. It's the original OP 24 preamp which I'm assured is working.

I tried the original saddle/piezo unit in but it's way too tall for the action I like.

Does someone out there make a lower profile piezo/saddle unit which would fit this guitar's bridge?

Or, is it possible to safely remove the saddle from the piezo's metal base so I can work on it?

I haven't tried so far, for fear of damaging it.

Grateful for any help, thank you.

Karl
