LR Baggs

Lloyd Baggs started as a cellist, playing in youth symphonies and the UCLA symphony. After earning a Fine Art degree, he crafted guitars for artists like Jackson Browne and Ry Cooder. His interest in pickups began with creating the LB6, designed to amplify an acoustic guitar without damaging it. This led to the founding of LR Baggs, with a mission to faithfully amplify acoustic guitars. (photo: namm.org)

Meet The Pickups

HiFi

The HiFi is a non-invasive pickup design that pairs dual bridge plate sensors with high-fidelity electronics, providing exceptional balance, definition, dynamics, and good feedback resistance.

Lyric

There's no argument that a microphone is the best way to capture the sound of an acoustic guitar, but until now, using a microphone for most live performances has been an elusive dream.

Lyric, the next step in TRU•MIC technology, is the long overdue realization of this dream. Without a pickup, Lyric’s microphone accurately transports your guitar's actual voice to a live audience for the most realistic and inspiring sound you will ever experience.

Anthem

The Award-winning Anthem series, featuring LR Bagg's patented TRU•MIC technology, seamlessly combines a proprietary condenser microphone with their acclaimed Element pickup to deliver the warmth and fidelity of a studio-mic’d guitar anywhere you perform.
