I have this -
The Irish Stew (made from a StewMac kit). It's solid spruce top with solid rosewood back and sides, and I was thinking of putting a pick up in it. However I am in three minds (at least) about whether to do it and what to choose should I go for it.
There's a rather mind-boggling wodge of alternatives out there. Does anyone have any recommendations?
PS Why does it say 'image' in front of my pic when I post it, but it's not there when I try to edit it out?

However, from now on, I will try to get a dynamic mic in front of my acoustic whenever I can. It is more troublesome and is only possible if you're in something like a vocal/guitar duet, but the sound will be worth it!

I've put this in my most recent acquisition and am very impressed. For comparison, I've got magnetics (Fishman Rare Earths) in two guitars, a Headway undersaddle in one, and a factory fitted Fishman blender in another. The blender is probably the best sound but it would cost a fortune as an aftermarket part. It's also a bit more feedback prone with the mic. I would put the Pure Mini ahead of the others though, and it costs less than the rare-earths.
Ta muchly for your help.
