How do you install an emg pickup on a guitar but the guitar has one pickup only?
through a guitar with passive pickups , take out the old pots (things under the knobs in the guitar) , take out the old input jack and replace them all with the new active pickup ones. After words put in all the new stuff, connect the pickups and you're done. I recommend the X series ones as they are a lot easier to do, plus once their in properly you can switch them any time you want. If its hard just pay the 50-100$ for a guitar tech to do it. Craigslist has some cheap ones.

How do you hook the rocksmith guitar cable into an acoustic guitar?
the only way to hook rock-smith to a acoustic guitar is to buy a pickup that mounts into the sound hole. this requires drilling a hole in the guitar for the female jack that is on most electric guitar's so you can plug in a cord. the pickup is wired to the female jack that is installed.
