LR Baggs Violin Pickup

The LR Baggs Violin Pickup features a miniature vibration transducer cast right into the bridge. The transducer is designed to accept the tone-rich left/right movement of the bridge, reject feedback, eliminate scratchy nasal sounds, and trace the natural sound of the instrument. The LR Baggs Violin Pickup has set the standard since its inception over a decade ago, and it is the top choice of more top pros—including Alison Krauss, Michael Doucet, Darol Anger, Jean-Luc Ponty—than any other pick-up.

As an integral part of the bridge, it effortlessly captures the instrument's inherent dynamics. Furthermore, its selective admittance pattern is aligned so that the signal is generated as the bridge moves in a left-right motion (in response to the string vibrations). The transducer also rejects any impulse directed to the plane of the bridge, minimizing annoying finger squeaks, body noise and feedback.
