Replacement ABG Pickup?????

Thanks for the help people. I talked to someone at Elderly Instruments and they said that Fishman would make an extra long ribbon pickup for $120. I only paid $100 for the guitar. For the time being I'm going buy some piezo discs and try experimenting with making my own. If that doesn't work, I'm going to put a magnetic pickup in the soundhole.
 
If you go with a soundhole pickup, allow me to suggest the Seymour Duncan Woody HC. It is a stacked humbucker with a very natural acoustic tone, for not a lot of money. I've never been disappointed with mine. Good luck with whatever you decide.
