L.R.Baggs L.R. BAGGS EAS Element Active System - SADDLE PICKUP FOR ACOUSTIC GUITAR WITH VOLUME CONTROL

(This text is machine translated) Unlike typical acoustic guitar underseat pickups that depend on string compression for their sound, the Element was designed to mirror the actual movement of the soundboard as you play. At the heart of the pickup, a flexible film sensor only 2 thousandths of an inch thick detects the most delicate nuances of the guitar. Tracking top movement rather than direct string attack eliminates the "quack" caused by compression and unlocks the Element's unrivaled dynamic range. The minimalist construction of the pickup reduces any influence on the acoustic properties and creates an intimate coupling between the pickup and the guitar for the highest possible fidelity.
