Re: Jack mounting on a Rigel
Personally, I'd avoid the Radius. It is exceptionally prone to handling noise and LF 'thump' issues. They can require a lot of EQ work to get them to sound decent.
You could consider the AKG C411.
These are far less 'quacky' than the Baggs and can use a temporary fix (or permanent - though that is a little more tricky as they use a condenser, not a piezo, element). Closest comparison is the new Schertler transducers. They sound very similar. Much smoother..good output and you can run them straight into the mic XLR input of any desk. No additional preamps required. Easy to EQ.
