It's never going to sound as good as a mic, but it sure is handy. And for playing in groups, you get more volume than you would get with a mic. I think it's perfectly OK for rumba-type stuff. If I were to accompany, I think you need the mic sound. I have always used Fishman's because they are just simple and common. The Cordoba I have now has one of those blend systems and they work quite well. Treble, Bass, Mid, Notch, Frequency, Balance. Oh, and volume. The volume control is very handy, too.

Fishman problend, IS a microphone. The thing is it is inside the guitar, so a little EQ is needed to get as natural sound as an external mic, but honestly you have to do EQ with external mics too. The advantage of having the mic on board is, no stand, feedback control, volume control, EQ, etc, all from your playing position. The piezo helps when you need to play REALLY loud, but I get away with using almost all mic in most situations. Ricardo
