LR Baggs M1a – Active Magnetic Acoustic

LR Baggs M1a – Active Magnetic Acoustic Guitar Soundhole Pickup

(Cost me – £125 from eBay)

Been wanting one of these for years. Looks cool. Haven’t drilled the relative holes in my acoustic to fit it yet but it works fine dangling about anyway. Best sounding magnetic sound hole pickup I’ve ever used. Got it on the cheap off eBay as well. Nice.

Gigging with it for the first time on Sunday (4th September 2016) as my Taylor 414ce is taking a holiday to the south of France. Not even kidding. I’m gonna pop the LR Baggs in my Big Baby and use that. My Big Baby is currently equipped with a K&K mini which is ok but takes a lot of EQ tweaking and just doesn’t sound as good as the LR Baggs in my personal opinion.
