Acoustic Bridge PickUp - Looking for Advice

November 4, 2010 at 5:13 AM

I am looking to buy a pick-up for my acoustic violin. There are a few models out there - LR Baggs - Barcus Berry etc. If anyone has any experience with any of the models out there - I would appreciate any information so that I can buy the best available. I have a very good electric violin - but it is not the same as playing my acoustic. I can't experience the acoustic nuances that I get with my acoustic - therefore I decided to use it all the time with a pickUp. Appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,
