I think Mojo uses the Bose version of those things. As far as I remember he had good things to say about them. I don't know much about the Fishman version.
Looks pretty cool though.

Fishman makes quality suff for the most part. Give it a test ride and see if you like the sound. Better than hauling hundreds of pound and making all of the conections. The bose set up is really quite good too. Looks like a sweet set up and at 25 # that is nice.

I know there's a Bose unit out that is comparable but from the rounds I've made on various forums asking this question most of the responses have been negative towards Bose, in the general sense. I don't know why. One commenter stated flatly that he wouldn't buy anything made by Bose. Okay, dude has his reasons but he didn't elaborate while others just had better things to say about Fishman. I got the sense that folks were just spouting off without having experience with either brand's system.
For me, toting around a 75 pound Fender Acoustasonic has come to an end. Not gonna do it. Hence my interest in the Fishman (Fishstick).

I have heard the complaints on the Bose system but the ones I have heard were very good in a smaller settings. I don't think they would be the best for hard rock or metal. but the semi accustic and light rock settings were every nice.

I tend to think proper use of any system is the difference between a good opinion and bad one. Who knows?

The Bose L1 is awesome for a singer/acoustic guitar setup. Easy, light, assembled in 10 minutes, no sound check required.
The SA is not bad either, for that matter. $200 less than the Bose. Not as "elegant" a solution but features perfectly fine channel separation, which is what's really important in those things.
And for the record, I am no Bose fan either.
