    Acoustic Pre Amp recommendations

    Hey All,

    So I recently did some work on a bunch of acoustic guitars, mostly just freshen up and minor repairs. All went well but one of the guitars was an Epiphone Ej200 that he really wants to gig with. It has some kind of on board mic, but its sounds pretty rubbish. Very thin and cold.

    I've just been googling around and it looks like some of these guitars did come with an on board pickups/preamp, but its totally different to what was on this guitar. All it had was basically a volume knob in the sound hole. No control panel/battery pack like on most other guitars. So I'm thinking its been added after market at some point.

    So because I'm not really into acoustics much, my questions is, what are some good recommendations for on board pickups and pre-amps that can be added without too much chopping up of the guitar?
