LR Baggs M80 Soundhole Pickup

More Body... More Soul

From the tone woods use to construct it, to the intricacies of the building process, the soul of your guitar is in its body. The LR Baggs M80 captures the entire frequency range of your guitar's tonewoods, adding a warmth and complexity to your tone which represents the true acoustic voice of your guitar. This is thanks to the M880's free-floating humbucking coil, which acts as a 3D body sensor, and picks up much more than the standard dry string signal of standard magnetic pickups.

As the soundboard resonates in all 3 dimensions, a proprietary suspension allows each axis of the humbucking coil to respond with the guitar's movement. A resonate body signal is produced and blended with the strings to faithfully capture your guitar like no other magnetic pickup ever created.

The M80 also gives you the choice of active or passive settings with the flick of a switch. The active setting engages a preamp with built-in EQ and audiophile circuitry for that "high-fidelity" sound LR Baggs is known for. Switch to the passive setting and bypass the preamp for a battery free performance. Other features of the M80 include a battery check, volume control and adjustable pole pieces for perfect balance between strings.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we like the LR Baggs M80 because it captures the true sound of your acoustic guitar, and features versatile controls to further shape your tone.
