The live rig is finally complete.

 

First, the pickup.  I've never liked the dulled sound of an acoustic instrument through a piezo pickup.  I found an alternative:  Myers Pickups.  This thing is an isolated condenser microphone on a gooseneck working as an active pickup, and it sounds great.  The character of the uke really comes through when amplified.

 

Also pictured is the Fishman Loudbox Artist acoustic amp, and the Line 6 M13 effects processor.
