The Atmosfeel system looks like a good stage option but it's still inferior by a good stretch to using microphones for a couple of reason...
Most importantly, it doesn't set itself apart from every other pickup that I'd never use for recording. The piezo quacks like every other piezo and the internal mic brings nothing special at all to the table. It's very meh.
Next, it's almost always preferable to record guitar in stereo. The Atmosfeel is going to leave you with a mono track. That's fine for the stage, but in the studio you want to have stereo options. The extra money you'd spend to have a pickup on board would be better spent put toward a couple of microphones.
