LR Baggs IBeam Active Pickup System Nylon

The iBeam Active System for Classical/Nylon string guitars reproduces the natural tone of your guitar while maintaining perfect string balance and providing full dynamic range. Delivering the same dynamically rich, high-fidelity sound as the steel string version, the iBeam is accurately voiced to articulate the frequency response of nylon stringed instruments. With an intelligent and easy-to-fit design, the iBeam Active System is an ideal choice for anyone wanting to add or upgrade the electronics in their classical guitar.

 

Bridge Plate Pickup With "Mic-like" Fidelity

The iBeam’s MIPA award-winning design employs a matched pair of virtually weightless film sensors that flex With the soundboard to trace your guitar’s voice much like diaphragms in a stereo mic. A key advantage over typical bridge plate sensors is the iBeam’s “cardioid” like response pattern that inhibits feedback and string squeak while selectively admitting rich tone-producing vibrations. Weighing less than 1/3 of an ounce, the pickup will not alter the guitar’s natural acoustics and easily mounts to the bridge plate With peel-and-stick adhesive.
