For decades, L.R. Baggs have 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.

The Element Active System is a premium under-saddle pickup/preamp for acoustic guitar. The under-saddle transducer element itself has a minimalist design and broad surface contact area that lets it get the most out of your instrument. The preamp is a Class A discreet endpin-mounted unit that you simply plug in and it turns on. An equally discreet removable control mounts just inside the soundhole for easy access. The whole system is easily installed on most acoustic guitars without making any permanent alterations to the instrument.
