MOOV Travel Guitar

https://moovguitars.com/

This is the world's only "silent" guitar that can pick up golpes with the built-in electronics (rather than having to add an external set of electronics / pickups). Also, it is by far the one that becomes the smallest in size and is the highest in quality.

That is sounding better than I recall they used to. Have they added something to the electronics chain?

Arash, you're hilarious.

Fawkes, I'm using an amp simulator.

I've been wondering how far one could go using that kind of thing. Your setup is working pretty well. Seems better than the Yamaha's internals?

The main thing is the contact sensor for the golpes, which is not found in any other silent guitar but the MOOV Travel Guitar. Otherwise, if we're talking about piezo (under the saddle) elements, they all benefit from some kind of "treatment" with an amp sim or an IR. Yamaha has something like that going on with their SRT systems, but they are not going to measure up to the newer tech.
