LR Baggs M80 Magnetic Soundhole Acoustic Guitar Pickup
Bring out more of your acoustic guitar's natural character with the LR Baggs M80 Magnetic Soundhole Pickup. Unlike traditional magnetic pickups that primarily capture string vibrations, the M80 features an innovative 3D body-sensing design that also responds to the vibrations of your guitar's body.
The M80 uses a patented, free-floating humbucking coil suspended within the pickup. This specially designed coil moves in three dimensions as the guitar top resonates, capturing body vibrations and blending them with the magnetic string signal. The result is a fuller, warmer, and more natural amplified sound with enhanced tonal depth and clarity.
