Experimenting with piezo pickups to reduce noise

One of the hardest problems to solve in regards to make the EC a good feeling instrument is noise. Having so much electrical stuff going on under the hood makes it quite hard to isolate it completely from the electromagnetic pickups. While I’ve got the noise down to a somewhat acceptable level (if keeping the gain moderate), I wanna try a different route by implementing piezo transducers from #graphtech, which are immune against electromagnetic interference. I wonder if it’s worth the trade off  of having a piezo sound…
