Does anyone know what pick up/mic Edgar is using in this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AYz62UxLPg There are quite a few close ups and it seems to be fixed to the bridge foot and going into the top f=-hole eye, never seen anything quite like it.

Ashley,
It's pretty difficult to determine what Edgar is using. It looks like he has a Realist mounted under the E Foot of the bridge or something like that. The unit in the F hole reminds me of the Toby Timber Mic, but unless he is using it in a very creativeand unusual way, with a custom mount, then I'm not really sure. Here's a picture of the Toby Timber. Frankly, I'm not sure the TT would even work that way, but it is a condenser mic, so I guess it's not outside the realm of possibilities.

From an old interview with Edgar (the setup in your video looks to be that same setup he's been using for ages...):
