The LR Baggs Anthem Acoustic Guitar Pickup is an acoustic guitar pickup system featuring a "Tru-Mic" and Element pick up. The Award-winning Anthem series, featuring LR Baggs' TRU-MIC technology, combines a proprietary condenser microphone with the Element pickup to deliver the warmth and fidelity of a studio-mic'd guitar anywhere you perform. At the heart of the Anthem is a revolutionary microphone engineered to capture a dynamic studio-mic'd sound for any live performance. The TRU-MIC mounts to the underside of the bridge plate and hovers just 3mm above its surface to take advantage of the PZM or "boundary" effect.

This proprietary mounting system, combined with noise cancellation, frees the mic to perform as if it were outside of the guitar in a studio and maintain feedback suppression for the stage. The result is a balanced frequency response with excellent clarity for the purest sound you have ever heard amplified. The Element pickup was paired with the TRU-MIC to provide solidity and punch for low frequencies.The Anthem has all of the essential tools in one complete system. The feather-weight preamp and controls include volume, mix, phase and a battery check.
