LR Baggs M1 Active Magnetic Soundhole Acoustic Guitar Pickup
The LR Baggs M1 Active combines innovative magnetic pickup technology with a built-in audiophile-quality preamp to deliver a rich, natural acoustic sound. Its body-sensitive design captures both string vibrations and the natural resonance of your guitar's soundboard, creating a full, detailed amplified tone.
The built-in Class A preamp boosts the pickup's output, providing a strong, direct signal to an acoustic guitar amplifier or PA system without requiring an external preamp. A conveniently positioned volume control allows quick adjustments during performance.
The M1 Active also features adjustable pole pieces for precise string-to-string balance and a patented suspended-coil design that captures additional body resonance for greater warmth and tonal depth.
