Electric death -
Want to elaborate on that piezo mic? (presuming, of course, you weren't kidding... )

Sorry but it's top secret.

Zben are you using this piezo in conjunction with a pickup selector switch that switches between it and your regular pickups?

Hey Electric_Death, are you the same guy that some time ago (at DiyAudio.com or Zoom G2 forum, I don´t remember which one) was a little worried about the possibility that the Zoom Company stoled your knowleadge to developt the G2 pedal ?

I would like contract letting for ElectricDeath: a speaker in form of shaped charge with linear frequency response, at least 80% efficiency. I hope it means only mild brainteaser for such dab like You.

Based on the information given and after doing a little more research, I would have to conclude that the manner in which the piezo element is being used is the cause of the problem. It's simply going into oscillation because of feedback.

You have to take apart one of those peizo elements to get the crystal out and put it under the bridge or strings, you can't just throw it in there and expect it to act like a microphone. This page basically tells you what has to be done: http://www.sciencebuddies.org/mentoring/project_ideas/Elec_p048.shtml
There's other pages that tell you essentially the same thing...

andronico and IGR, were you born this big of assholes or did your failures on guitar and with women turn you this way??
Maybe you can pay me a visit sometime and we'll see how much attitude you'll give me face to face..and wear a diaper, you'll need it.

Hey man, are you crazy ? I only want to know if you are the same guy because that guy had good presets for the G2 pedalboard. If you aren´t that guy, you only say NO i´m not, that´s all ! I think that you really has a very big problem.

Now I see, you are really heavy man, Electric Death. I´m sorely sorry, I should have belt up, and wish you good speed with your amazing piezo mic!
