Here's another Moore Bettah clip, "L-N-D Slack Key" shot in my backyard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0nUgVCwQ2w

Not only gorgeous and playable, this `ukulele has one of the best sounding pickups I've ever heard in a uke. I'll have to ask Chuck Moore http://www.moorebettahukes.com/ what he uses.

I'm not 100%, but I'm fairly certain Chuck uses the Mi-Si Acoustic Trio. We talked about it when I visited his shop, but I'm having trouble remembering... ha ha

I contacted Chuck about the pickup, his normal installation is the MiSi but in this one he used the Baggs 5-0 `ukulele pickup. http://www.lrbaggs.com/pickups/five-o-ukulele-pickup
