This is the pickup that started it all
for us. It has been in production for over 20 years, and
continues to be the pickup of choice for such large-venue
performers as Vince Gill, Phil Keaggy, Kathy Mattea and
James Taylor.
Here's why: the great presence and warmth of this pickup,
along with its built-in feedback-cancelling design, makes
the LB6 the best choice for high-SPL performing situations.
There are three key features that are unique to the LB6.
First, the pickup itself is a saddle that has six individual
sensors cast right into it. Because the sensors are an integral
part of the connection between the strings and guitar body,
maximum sensitivity and signal transfer is guaranteed.
Second, the sensors are responsive to vibration as well
as pressure. This blends the natural warmth of the body
vibrations with the presence and attack of the strings.
Third, the LB6 contains an exclusive feedback-inhibiting
circuit. This makes it the most feedback-resistant non-magnetic
acoustic guitar pickup available. If you play loud but still
want to sound acoustic, you owe it to yourself to check
out the LB6.
The pickup materials are chosen to conduct sound like
the original saddle. The LB6 will not alter the acoustic
tone of the guitar perceptibly, nor will it change its look.
It can be shaped, sanded and intonated just like the original
saddle. The pickup has a high output and may be plugged
directly into most guitar amps or effects. It is 100% shielded
and it is whisper-quiet. Each pickup is individually hand-built
with pride to ensure the highest level of performance and
reliability.

"In a live situation the pickup enables
me to maintain an acoustic presence in the company
of a drum kit and electric bass but still have a
true acoustic sound."

"The LB6 is the best sounding pickup I've
ever heard."

"Simply put, there is no other pickup that
I've come across in nearly 30 years of building
and repairing guitars that is better than the LB6.
It's the only pickup to start with for a live, on-stage,
trouble-free performance. From Thom Bresh to Phil
Keaggy to Earl Klugh, I've installed it to fit anyone's
needs. I've been told the acoustic reproduction
is so natural that microphones are unnecessary."
