{"product_id":"element-vtc","title":"Element Active System VTC","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Element is the pickup system that we stripped down to bare essentials. By removing every physical obstacle between the guitar and its film sensor, we built this system to correct a design flaw in most traditional undersaddle pickups, which depend on direct string pressure to compress the sensor. This is what leads to the notorious “quack” that acoustic guitarists constantly try to avoid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLloyd Baggs invented the Element with a beautifully minimalist design. The Element rejects string attack, allowing it to mirror the actual movement and resonance of your guitar’s soundboard and capture the nuances of your instrument. With an all-discrete, Class A endpin preamp, it delivers a warm, “un-quackable” tone that cuts through a loud band mix.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baggs","offers":[{"title":"Steel String Model","offer_id":48867204038875,"sku":null,"price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Nylon String Model","offer_id":48867204071643,"sku":null,"price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/8924\/0027\/files\/baggs-element-vtc-pickup-soundhole.jpg?v=1786658698","url":"https:\/\/baggs.co\/products\/element-vtc","provider":"Baggs (LR Baggs Acoustic Amplification)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
