The L.R. Baggs violin pickup features a miniature transducer cast right into the bridge. Biased primarily to accept the rich left-right movement of the bridge and reject nasal sounds, it traces the natural dynamics of the instrument.

Includes Carpenter jack.

Best results from the Violin Pickup will be achieved by using a high-quality, high-impedance preamp with lots of clean gain, such as our Para D.I. or Gigpro. Our affordably-priced violin pickup has become the industry standard for top pros.

Here's why:

• Highly selective miniature sensor is epoxy-embedded in the bridge itself for unsurpassed sensitivity. No stuck-on or wedged-in appendage can match its response.
• Sensor is sensitive only in the rich left-right mode to bring out the true character of your violin yet reject extraneous string and body noise
• Does not alter the inherent acoustic qualities of the instrument
• Studio quality response makes it a viable tool for recordings
• High feedback resistance for stress-free high sound pressure levels on stage
• Even string to string balance
• Can be plugged directly into most combo amps with great results, even without a preamp
• Comes inset in a high quality Aubert #7 Mirecourt maple bridge for optimum acoustic response
• Though the Violin pickup does not require use of a preamp, best results in most situations will result from using a high-quality, clean gain preamp.
