Always love your playing and the pickup sounds great
Thanks for the demo! I look forward to trying this one out sooner than later.
Look forward to your skillfully played review of it .
I still love my baggs i beam pick up and the old para di pre amp box. I use k n k in my 000 18 and smaller sound hole guitars. I am also a big fan of the m magnetic series of baggs sound hole pick up.
Nice sound 😊
Now I hear the Pickup in this video sound Very Nice other videos for the same pickup sound very bad I don't know which one to believe
I'd consider this product if it was available without a built-in preamp. To me, the main appeal of soundboard transducer pickups are their minimal invasiveness inside the guitar, and the ability to eliminate the clunky battery and preamp hardware from inside to whichever outboard system you'd like, i.e. so you have options. IMO, the built in preamp on this system short circuits that advantage, and you're left with something just a step above the typical garden variety under saddle pickup system.
I agree 100 percent.
Does it also work well with Martin 42 Remazine?
would have love to ear the tone fully open
I have an Anthem installed on two of my guitars. I would like LR Baggs to make and Anthem with the existing internal mic, but using the HIFI instead of the under saddle. I bet that would be fantastic!
Check out the new HiFi Duet, sounds like what you're looking for!
@@brianfulda I just found out about it. thanks
Are we hearing only the Di signal, or is it a blend with the room mic?
Hi Dennis - The first two examples are a combination of a DI and the room mic picking up the amp. The final example is just the DI, with the room mics muted.
@@pegheadnation An A/B of the mic'd guitar and pickup isolated would have been most useful to see how accurate the system is. Maybe with the B non-EQ'd and one EQ'd to tone match a bit.
Great video! WHat song is he playing off the d chord. Ive heard it but cannot place it at 6:47
That's kind of a "Norwegian Wood" approximation, but really just playing with those chords. - Teja Gerken
Price $199.
I feel that every other pickup LR Baggs released after The Anthem and Lyric is a downgrade, at least to my ears. I have a Lyric on my J-15 and 3 other guitars with Anthem and I think they sound more like the guitar than any other pickups system.
With I’m not saying that the HiFi is a bad pickup, it actually sounds pretty great, but not as good as the Anthem or Lyric, I would say that the M-1 is pretty darn good too.
But it is an upgrade in non-invasiveness.
Keyword: "FEEL."
I put a Lyric in a Larrivee OM but found it boxy sounding. I added a Fishman soundhole pickup and wired the two together. It sounds great with just a little of the Lyric blended in. But I spent the equivalent of an Anthem...
I disagree. There's videos with direct comparison and this hifi sounds much better imo
It does nothing for me....too trebly. Rather have the K&K or Journey.
Not a fan; I prefer an eq'd K&K over this any day.
Interesting we have to mention that we would eq something considering literally everything that hits a good soundboard gets EQ’d. How about, you prefer K&K? Biggest difference, K&K is glued in so the sonic transfer is greater plus there are 3 elements.
I hated the K&K, EQ'd or not. The HiFi sounds much better. . . just like that
I really like the sound from a KK but it feedbacks like a mofo at higher volume which was needed in a band setting. Wondering how this sys would react.
I have a K and K in two of my guitars, and an older I beam in one and two lyrics and an L.R. Baggs Mi passive in three others....I prefer the baggs stuff, sounds more like the actual guitar than the K and K, so I disagree that the K and K has better sonic transfer...it sounds more "generic", the baggs more natural.
@@dietersdawgs I have no idea what preamps anyone in this thread are using, but one thing I can tell you for sure - as an audio engineer, a guitarist, and a salesman of guitars and Baggs, Fishman and K&K systems - the right preamp is essential to getting the purest sound reproduction of the acoustic guitar. All three companies make great products, and I have demonstrated for many customers how choosing the right preamp makes the K&K Pure Pickup sound brilliant. I have also shown customers how the Baggs Para-Acoustic DI can enhance their Baggs pickups. Many ways to get there.
