LR Baggs AEG-1 - Torrefied Sitka Spruce
The Baggs AEG-1 Acoustic Electric Guitar is the culmination of a lifetime dedicated to high-performance acoustic amplification, all rooted in the craftsmanship of a luthier. Their founder and master luthier, Lloyd Baggs, began his journey as a guitar maker, creating instruments for artists like Ry Cooder, Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, and Janis Ian. His deep respect for the guitar evolved into a quest to faithfully amplify his own instruments for live performance.
After years of studying the physics of acoustic instruments and pioneering advancements in pickups and electronics, the Baggs AEG-1 is the realization of everything we’ve learned about acoustic sound and amplification. Lloyd’s dual expertise as a luthier and a pickup designer allowed them to craft a guitar and its electronics in harmony, finely tuning the system for this instrument.
The reason for AEG-1’s groundbreaking performance is the patent pending integrated neck support system that frees the guitar’s top and back from the need to support the neck. This allows them unprecedented freedom to voice the top and back to maximize the acoustic response, achieving a full-bodied sound from a thin and comfortable design. With greater structural integrity, more string energy is driven into the top, resulting in a wider dynamic range, greater tonal depth, enhanced low-frequency response, and improved tuning stability.
With its remarkable acoustic properties, they were able to successfully amplify the AEG-1 with our most accurate system yet — the revolutionary HiFi Duet. Equipped with their award-winning HiFi Bridge Plate Pickups and their studio-quality Silo Microphone, the AEG-1 is versatile for any stage, big or small.
