The Woody is a surprisingly effective pickup for Western-style acoustic guitars. Seymour Duncan’s managed to pack a lot of feedback resistance and clarity into a small package with a nice aesthetic. It’s a great, affordable option for gigging musicians who need a clean, amplified acoustic tone without sacrificing too much natural acoustic character.
