There's no argument that a microphone is the best way to capture the
sound of an acoustic guitar, but until now, using a microphone for most
live performances has been an elusive dream. Lyric, the next step in
Tru•Mic technology, is the long overdue realization of this dream.
Without a pickup, Lyric's microphone accurately transports your guitar's
actual voice to a live audience for the most realistic and inspiring
sound you will ever experience.
TRU•MIC TECHNOLOGY
Our featherweight microphone,
each high-graded for ideal response, mounts to the underside of the
bridge plate with simple peel-&-stick adhesive to preserve the
integrity of your instrument. The microphone leverages the
"pressure-zone" principle by positioning the capsule just 3mm from the
surface of the top to hear the entire soundboard for even balance and
tone. And the microphone's proximity to the top allows high gain before
feedback. Unlike other attempts to use an internal microphone, Lyric
employs noise canceling technology that rejects "boxy" reflections
inside of the acoustic chamber. This patent pending minor miracle
enables the mic to act as if it were outside of the guitar delivering a
clear and open performance.
CIRCUIT INNOVATIONS
In a studio, you would have
to use an entire rack of gear to achieve what we have built into Lyric's
tiny circuit board. Our lead engineer, Tommy Linn, created several
patent pending "black box" circuit innovations that unlock the potential
of the microphone. The first tightens the lower frequencies for a
punchier attack with natural dynamics. The second maintains the
microphone's sweetness no matter how hard you play. The third
innovation, not patent pending but useful, is an adjustable "presence"
control that dials high frequency response perfectly for your guitar.
Wrap all of this in all discrete, high-fidelity mic pre and you have a
world class microphone system as an integral part of your guitar
anywhere you plug in.

GUITARIST MAGAZINE
– Dave Burrluck
“The
Lyric is a marvellous aide, especially for players who want studio,
mic-like tonality coming out of their acoustic amp or PA. Also, if
you're recording at home then it's not always easy to have a perfectly
quiet environment. Again, the Lyric is remarkably accurate in here,
giving you mic-like tonality direct into your recording software.”

ACOUSTIC GUITAR MAGAZINE
– Teja Gerken & Scott Nygaard
“One
of my main considerations with any amplification system is how good it
sounds given little or no time for a soundcheck. I’ve played countless
festivals where I had to walk onstage, plug in, and hope for the best.
It’s hard to imagine anything working any better in that situation than
the LR Baggs Lyric.”

Ricky Skaggs
By
the ripe old age of ten, Ricky was one of the rare musicians to have
performed with the artists considered the triumvirate of
bluegrass...Bill Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs and the Stanley Brothers. 'I
met Bill Monroe when I was six and played onstage with him by request of
someone in the audience. That was the first installment into my life of
music...I got infected that night. Read More »

Ian Ethan Case
Acoustic
Double-Neck Guitarist Ian Ethan Case began a journey into truly
uncharted territory when he picked up this seldom-seen 18-string
instrument in 2005, two years after leaving the Berklee College of
Music. While most who venture to play the instrument are either baffled
by or unaware of the possibilities that it offers (its history seems to
peg it as more of a stage prop than a valid musical tool), for him it is
simply “the most effective and intuitive means I’ve found to translate
into sound the things I’m hearing in my head.” Read More »
Bill Cooley
"In
what is surely one of the longest and musically richest partnerships in
Nashville, Bill Cooley has been playing guitar in Kathy Mattea's band
for 20 years." So writes the dean of Nashville's music critics, Robert
K. Oermann. Kirk Albrecht at minor7th.com describes Cooley as "... a
guitarists guitarist, like Vince Gill, who seems to be at home in most
any style." Read More »
