The L.R.Baggs violin pickup is one of the best violin pickups that deliver the cleanest and most original sound of your instrument. The brand is very popular among stringed instrument players. They've made an incredible name for themselves in the guitar industry.
Unlike most pickups, the L.R.Baggs violin pickup is attached to its own bridge. By doing so, the pickup can accurately capture the vibrations of the entire bridge effortlessly. The pickup also rejects any signal directed to the plane of the bridge, such as finger squeaks, body noise, and feedback.
An external preamp is recommended.
Note: Once the pickup is attached, it is not easily removed. Since the 1/4" jack mount needs to be soldered to the wire connecting to the bridge, the jack mount needs to stay on the instrument at all times.
Non-Terminated
Only includes bridge. Does not include jack mount (no 1/4" output). You can find your own preferred jack mount, and solder the wires yourself.
With External Jack Mount
Includes bridge and 1/4" jack mount that can be clamped to your violin. However, you'll still need to solder the bridge to the jack mount yourself.
You'll need to sand down the bridge for the 4 strings. You'll also need soldering equipment to connect the bridge to the jack mount. If you do not have proper equipment, we suggest working with your local luthier.
