L.R. Baggs, one of the front runners in the quest for the ultimate amplified tone for acoustic instruments, has announced Anthem. The meat and potatoes of Anthem is a brand new patent-pending type of acoustic guitar microphone, the Tru-Mic, that L.R. Baggs claims will “unlock the potential of a microphone to capture the very essence of your guitar with high feedback resistance for demanding stages.”

According to a press release from the company, Tru-Mic “captures the majority of the sound of the guitar while eliminating any annoying honking or boxy qualities that have been previously associated with internal mic’ing.”

The Anthem and it’s Tru-Mic technology does not use any digital modeling to capture the sonic qualities of the instrument. “This is a mic and what you will experience is your guitar- loud with the fidelity and dynamics that come from a real microphone.”

A feather-weight control unit contains all of the essentials: volume, mix and phase and nestles securely inside of the soundhole for easy fingertip access.

The Anthem will begin shipping in April 2010 and with a suggested list price of $429.00
