LR Baggs M1A Active Soundhole Magnetic Pickup Review
LR Baggs M1A – One of the problems with using an acoustic guitar on stage is being able to amplify the sound of the guitar well including the tone and wood sound. An acoustic pickup that does that well is the LR Baggs M1a. The active pickup equipped with this preamp is capable of capturing and producing the natural sound of an acoustic guitar.
Another advantage of this M1a is plug n play. We don’t need to pry and punch the guitar because this M1A can be installed in the soundhole with a clamp system.

This LR Baggs M1A also has a volume knob to adjust the sound plus a pole piece that can be adjusted in height as needed. The M1A is able to elevate the natural sound of an acoustic guitar directly to an amplifier or P.A. without an external preamp.
With all these features, it’s no wonder we find this M1A attached to the acoustic guitar used by Noel Gallagher, Leslie Feist to David Gilmour.
