Fishman VS-50P + powerchip

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Hi, newbie needing some help here...

i`d like a piezo bridge  (Fishman VS-50P + powerchip)  in my new strat and was wondering if i can use all three options (magnetic pu, both and piezo alone) with an additional 3-way switch thru my marshall (mg 100) combo. do i need a stereo cable and does my amp need a stereo input jack?

i don`t really get it from the description: http://www.fishman.com/uploads/products/documents/42.pdf

again: i want to use my magnetic pickups alone, my piezo signal alone and a mix of both with only one electric guitar amp using an extra 3-way switch in my strat.

will it sound any good on my amp anyway- i know it can`t turn my start in a fancy martin, but is the piezo sound through my electric guitar amp anywhere realistic, i.e. like an acoustic guitar?

yes you can do all of that, and you can get a stereo jack so that when you plug in a mono cable, it's all as your described but when you plug in a stereo cable with a Y output you can send your mag pup signal to your marshall and at the same time, separately send the piezo acoustic sound to the PA or an acoustic amp.
