Baggs Element VTC Acoustic Guitar Under-saddle Pickup

Under-saddle Piezo Acoustic Guitar Pickup with Volume and Tone Controls, Dynamic EQ and Compression, and Battery Bag

Pristine Acoustic Amplification from Baggs

Baggs creates some of the most widely renowned acoustic pickup systems on the market and has raised the bar again with this Element VTC system. The Element VTC system pairs the dynamic fullness of an under-saddle Element piezo pickup with the innovative VTC preamp for rich acoustic tone. Unlike traditional acoustic pickups, the Element pickup delivers a more authentic acoustic tone by mirroring the soundboard’s actual movements and vibrations. Meanwhile, the VTC pre-amp fills that sound with tape-like saturation, warmth, and a dynamic low-frequency EQ that compresses problematic frequencies as you play, an especially useful tool for stage musicians who want to avoid fiddling with knobs in between songs.

Quick install!

The Element VTC system is discrete, pre-wired, and ready for quick installation. The pre-amp features an endpin design for quick cable connection, while tone and volume controls mount to the soundhole for convenient access. The system runs off one 9-volt battery, and a battery bag is included in the box for easy mounting. Beyond impeccable tone and performance, Sweetwater players have also found the Baggs Element VTC system to be quite efficient on power. A single battery can deliver up to 1,000 hours of play time, which means less money to shell out on accessories and more play time without hassle or strain.
