LR Baggs Lyric Acoustic Microphone Review
by Dave Burrluck of Guitarist Magazine. Reprinted from Guitarist Magazine, June 2013
“The Lyric is a marvellous aide, especially for players who want studio, mic-like tonality coming out of their acoustic amp or PA. Also, if you're recording at home then it's not always easy to have a perfectly quiet environment. Again, the Lyric is remarkably accurate in here, giving you mic-like tonality direct into your recording software.”

“Simply put, the Lyric delivers warm, natural and dynamic tones that are impressively close to a guitar's inherent acoustic sound. As a result, the Lyric is as useful in the studio as it is onstage.”

Lyric Review – SoundPure
“LR Baggs is breaking barriers again with their new internal acoustic microphone, the Lyric. Not only is it unobtrusive and easy to install, but it also displays a clearer sound that has not been heard in other external or internal microphones until now. This microphone is great for any situation whether it be a live performance or even recording in your own home. It's your guitar, only louder.”
Lyric Review – Acoustic Guitar Magazine
by Scott Nygaard, Acoustic Guitar Magazine, April 2013
“One of my main considerations with any amplification system is how good it sounds given little or no time for a soundcheck. I’ve played countless festivals where I had to walk onstage, plug in , and hope for the best. It’s hard to imagine anything working any better in that situation than the L.R. Baggs Lyric.”
Lyric Review – Guitar World Magazine
There's no argument that a mic is the best way to capture the sound of an acoustic guitar, but until now, using a mic for most live performances has been an elusive dream. Lyric, the next step in Tru•Mic technology, is the long overdue realization of this dream. Without a pickup, Lyric's microphone accurately transports your guitar's actual voice to a live audience for the most realistic and inspiring sound you will ever experience.
