LR Baggs Lyric Acoustic Guitar Pickup

For decades, L.R. Baggs has been at the forefront of the design and manufacture of acoustic pickups, microphones, and preamps that provide the very best amplification solutions for acoustic musicians. Their products have become the standard factory fitted equipment in many of the most respected instrument brands including Gibson, Ibanez, Cort and Seagull, and dozens of smaller boutique guitar makers use L.R. Baggs systems as the default solution for providing electro-acoustic options on their instruments. It has long been known that a microphone is the best way to capture the sound of an acoustic guitar, but miking up a guitar in most modern live situations is tricky at best.

Featuring L.R.Baggs' TRUMIC technology, Lyric is a lightweight microphone that mounts to the underside of the bridge plate with a simple peel-and-stick adhesive. With the capsule just 3mm from the surface of the top, it hears the entire soundboard to produce even balance and tone. Lyric also has three “black box” circuit innovations. The first tightens the low frequencies for a punchier attack with natural dynamics. The second maintains the microphone’s sweetness no matter how hard you play, and the third is an adjustable presence control that dials in just the right high-frequency response for your guitar.
