The LR Baggs Element Active System is a high-fidelity undersaddle pickup designed to mirror the natural movement of your guitar’s soundboard. Unlike traditional undersaddle pickups that compress under string pressure and produce the familiar “quack,” the Element uses a patented flexible film sensor to capture the actual voice of your guitar with warmth, clarity, and dynamic nuance.

Built with minimalist construction to preserve your instrument’s acoustic tone, the Element system includes an all-discrete endpin preamp and a soundhole-mounted volume control—delivering clean, reliable performance with minimal visual impact.

Every unit is handcrafted and tested in California to ensure balanced output and superior fidelity.
