Hey all;
I have a piezo bridge/pickup for my electric guitar. I plan to wire it to a stereo jack, with one of the contacts for the magnetic pickups already in the guitar, and the other for the piezo. If I am not using a stereo cord, however, the piezo will just be grounded, since the ring connection will be in contact with the sleeve of the cord. Will this damage the pickup in any way (i.e, having the hot and ground connections shorted)? I don't see any reason why it would, but I thought I should check before I destroy a $200 pickup.
Thanks
