About LR Baggs M1 Active Pickup:
THE
M1™
EXPOSED
The
M1 is a humbucking pickup -- with a twist. In a common stacked humbucker, the
second, lower coil cancels hum, but doesn't contribute anything positive to the
sound. In fact, it can muddy the sound of the main coil. We unlock the second
coil. This allows it to make a positive sonic contribution while maintaining
the pure open sound of a single coil -- but without the hum.
TRIAXIAL
DYNAMIC TECHNOLOGY EXPLAINED
In
the M1™,
the hum-canceling coil is suspended under the main coil by a tuned support that
allows it to move in three dimensions. The primary coil moves with the guitar
top and creates a body signal in the suspended secondary coil. This brings the
M1 to life, with string and body sound all in one. It's like having a dual
pickup system in your soundhole.
We've
carefully tuned the support to control motion in all three dimensions. This
allows us to selectively add the presence and realism from the body signal
while suppressing runaway feedback.
