Using the Anthem System
Congratulations on your very own new Lakewood guitar with
L.R. Baggs Anthem System
The L .R . Baggs Anthem System is fitted with two signal sources . The
"Element" pickup, as an under-saddle transducer, is completed by the
"Tru · Mic", which sits fixedly mounted to the top inside the guitar right
underneath the bridge . Both sources of this audiophile system convey the
natural tone of your guitar - no more and no less .
1. Mix control (mixes between mic and bridge pickup)
When the mix control is rolled toward the neck, the internal microphone
(Tru · Mic) is carrying the majority of the guitar's voice with the Element
pickup supporting only the lowest frequencies of the over-all sound .
When rolled toward the bridge, you will hear the full-range Element
pickup only .
Feel free to experiment with different positions as there is a wide range of
great sounding and useful settings .
2. Phase inversion
For inverting the phase of the output signal in relation to the vibrating
string you may press the phase button . Most of the time one of both
possible settings will sound better and/or provide the best feedback

We recommend trying both settings each time you set up .
