This worked for mine.
Drill a hole at red arrow, run wire down through and along the spider allowing the piezo to sit in bottom of spider and then the wooden bridge sits on top of the piezo.
Put your cone in place and with a LITTLE pressure on the cone centre rotate the cone and look for any mark on the body showing cone contact. Will look like this ...
Easy fix to get cone clearance and increase volume of the box and possibly increase sound when unplugged.
How loud is the piezo compared to the humbucker with this circuit?This worked for mine.

Many thanks Cork Sniffer!! Sorry for the delay to respond - been in the shed staining the neck and drilling route for humbucker wire. My Piezo wire has a type of connector on the end rather than a live and ground like a 'normal' connection. Not sure what I'll find if I remove it!
there will be a lead wire and braid and not much else I believe.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
The humbucker is TWICE as loud as the piezo. It works fine but I suspect a pre amp would take it to a much better level.
I DIDN'T remove my connector, simply picked up the matching female connector from Jaycar and attached the plug in joint in a corner of the sound box. Did the same with the mini humbucker so I can change pickups without a soldering job.

Great idea CS. On a more mundane topic, can you tell me how to post a pic for avatar? Can't seem to find anything in My Profile.
Next to 'My Profile' is 'Settings'. Click on that and then select 'Edit Avatar' from the left side menu.
