I have a small PA at home, so I was able to test it out on the spot. The M80 pickup installation couldn't have been any simpler - took me five minutes and voila - I was ready to rock Wembley Stadium - Thank goodness I didn't. Hello everyone - Just reporting back after the show.
And any magnetic pickup will have a clip-in option with an external cable, so you won't even need to drill out the endpin. Some acoustic guys consider it the only rival to the very expensive Sunrise - I haven't owned a Sunrise, but I sure like my Angel. Having used all of those, I think the Dimarzio is the best-sounding option, but the Dimarzio Angel (more $$) is even better.
D I TONE FISHMAN SONITONE PICKUP MOD
They have a battery and a preamp built into the pickup, so no need to mod your guitar. If you raise your budget to $150 or so, you can find active magnetic pickups that still have the clip-on benefits - Baggs M1A (although it is super sensitive to any top noise), Duncan Mag Mic, and others. A $400 Sunrise would have the same problem. If you don't protect the pickup from the DI somehow, odds are your tone will sound like cardboard. This can be fixed for cheap with any well-buffered guitar pedal (if you have a clean buffer you aren't using, put it to work here). Lots of stages have inexpensive transformer DI boxes that will choke the life out of the gentle high-impedance signal. That said, any passive pickup (UST, soundboard, or magnetic) is going to have nasty impedance issues with a lot of PA equipment.
