Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna guitarist Jorma Kaukonen is a GRAMMY-winner and a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee. The man told us about his love for his LR Baggs HiFi Duet Pick Up.
Jorma Kaukonen: The one piece of gear I cannot live without is my LR Baggs HiFi Duet Pick Up. The LR Baggs pick up accurately transmits the true acoustic sound of my Flammang J-35 guitar to the house PA.
It’s ability to control latent feedback problems gives me sustainable volume without compromising tonal coloration. It is a very efficient pick up and the nine-volt battery lasts a very long time. Over the years I have used many configurations.
The LR Baggs, in my opinion, has proved to be the most serviceable one to date.
Jorma Kaukonen plays McCabe's Guitar Shop in Santa Monica with John Hurlbut for three shows from February 20 to 22.
