Baggs pickup system captures your acoustic tone with studio-quality clarity for both live performance and recording situations.

Premium Tonewoods for Dynamic Sound

The solid Sitka spruce top on the BR-43CE responds dynamically to your playing, projecting notes with shimmering highs and tight lows.
