New M1 Magnetic Soundhold Pickup Pickup
January 6, 2004
LR Baggs has developed what they are calling world's first body sensitive, the M1.
What makes it different? The "secret" is the patent-pending Tri-Axial Dynamic technology developed by Gary Garrett and Lloyd
Baggs. Within the pickup a humbucking coil is suspended beneath a string sensing coil, and is free to move as a three axis accelerometer in response to body
vibrations. The M1 combines a traditional string pickup and a 3
dimensional body pickup - so it is really a pre-blended dual source
system all within one passive pickup according to the company.
A 1/8" jack is built into the M1 body to make it a snap to take it in
and out. The pickup includes a strapjack pre-wired with Mogami cable and
a 12 foot Mogami guitar cable. It's user-installable in seconds and there is no battery.
List Price: $199
Available: February 2004
