Thanks for all of this information! I decided to look into the Yamaha models on your advice. Lo, and behold, I found an amazingly detailed and incredibly helpful amazon review written by… Alan Brinton! The pictures of the disassembled instrument were exceedingly helpful. I see where I can affix this to a wooden casing with a slightly oversized resonating chamber, and where I can machine a spit valve to operate properly without interfering with my planned placement of the piezoelectric pickups. I’m excited to start getting machine to wood on this later this month!
