Install looks super easy. I have a najarian pup but it only sounds good with loads of eq

For 12 euro I might experiment with this

Anyone tried it on oud or other acoustic instruments?

How did it sound?

have a similar, maybe even same model from thomann. Not bad, with piezzos you always will need some EQ. I would always preferr a decent microphone. for life öerformance preferably a hypercardioid or even shotgun.

Look e.g. At this one:

I have this one and used it wir satisfactory reults for live situations on a cello. Certainly a much better sound than with any piezzo I know.
