LR Baggs Active iBeam Acostic Guitar Bridgeplate Transducer System

The iBeam Active System combines a bridge plate transducer with an endpin preamp that enables you to simply "plug-in-and-play". The iBeam reproduces the natural tone of an acoustic guitar while maintaining perfect string balance and providing full dynamic range. The iBeam itself is the heart of the system and weighs only 1/3rd oz. This revolutionary bridge plate transducer easily sticks to the bridge plate on the inside of the guitar and does not affect the acoustic tone of the guitar in any way. The iBeam is sensitive enough to hear the rich (but correct) texture of finger squeak and top tapping, but is resistant to feedback and gives you excellent amplified sound without a hint of piezo quack. The iBeam preamp is made up of class A discrete circuitry and built on our stereo Strapjack Plus. Pre-tuned to deliver that great L.R. Baggs performance from the iBeam in any situation, it is ultra-quiet and faithfully amplifies the sound and dynamics of the iBeam.
