The common undersaddle pickups - you've probably used before - rely on string attack to directly compress the transducer to create sound. This direct pressure is a root cause of the infamous “quack”. In contrast, the LR Baggs Element derives output from the movement of the soundboard and rejects string attack to minimize quack.
Its flexible film sensor, thin as a human hair, mirrors the soundboard’s movement as you play to capture the guitar’s actual voice and its most delicate nuances. In addition, the pickup’s minimalist construction removes most of its influence on the acoustic properties, creates an intimate coupling between the sensor and guitar for the highest fidelity possible, and makes the Element amazingly reliable.
