Premium Pickup Options for Fenech Guitars
At Fenech Guitars, we believe your amplified sound should be as inspiring as your unplugged tone. That’s why every guitar we build comes equipped with the LR Baggs Element Bronze, a discreet, high-quality undersaddle pickup that delivers warm, balanced tone and faithful response straight out of the box.
For players seeking the ultimate in amplified acoustic performance, we now offer the option to upgrade to the LR Baggs HiFi Duet, a cutting-edge system that combines a high-fidelity bridge plate pickup with a condenser microphone for a rich, dimensional sound that truly captures the essence of your playing.
Premium Pickup Included:
LR Baggs Element Bronze VTC
Simple. Reliable. Pure Tone.
The LR Baggs Element Bronze VTC, part of the Element VTC Series, is designed to capture the warmth, dynamics, and natural character of your guitar’s voice. With its streamlined, plug-and-play design and discreet soundhole-mounted volume control, it delivers a clear, organic tone without the need for intrusive onboard electronics.
Key Features:
Flexible film undersaddle transducer that mirrors the movement of the soundboard, capturing the guitar’s natural dynamics and reducing the “quack” effect common in traditional piezo pickups.
All-discrete Class A endpin preamp for a pure, uncolored signal with enhanced warmth and body sensitivity.
Soundhole-mounted volume control for easy access without compromising the guitar’s aesthetics.
Minimalist design that preserves the acoustic properties of the guitar, ensuring an intimate coupling between the pickup and instrument.
Battery type: Single 9V, offering up to 1,000 hours of life.
The LR Baggs Element Bronze VTC is installed as standard across our entire range at no extra charge.
