L.R Baggs Radius Pickup for Violin & Mandolin

The Radius pickup is a hi-tech contact sensor that was designed to emulate the sound of a mic without the instability associated with microphones. The pickup installs easily to the instrument with mounting putty that is non-destructive to its finish. Inside of the pickup’s housing is a highly flexible film sensor that responds much like a mic diaphragm. The sensor is held in equilibrium and damped by opposing neodymium magnets that allow the pickup to respond to the instruments most subtle nuances.

The pickup works really well on both violin and mandolin, and is a great option for players who occasionally need to amplify rather than having a permanent pickup fitted to their instrument.
