Baggs developed it with Gibson, and Gibson uses it in some of its own acoustic guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Makes the HiFi DNA Different\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSplit bass and treble sensors.\u003c\/strong\u003e Two sensors sit on the bridge plate inside the guitar, one under the bass strings and one under the treble strings. Each one gets its own preamp circuit before the signals are combined, so the low end stays full and round and the trebles stay clear instead of turning harsh or quacky.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLighter, more flexible sensors.\u003c\/strong\u003e The new sensors follow the top's movement more closely than the original HiFi, so they pick up more detail and respond better to a light touch or a hard strum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAll-discrete Class-A endpin preamp.\u003c\/strong\u003e A high-grade FET input and all-discrete circuitry live in the endpin jack. You get a clean, natural signal that works well into an acoustic amp, a PA or a DI.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume and tone at the soundhole.\u003c\/strong\u003e Small thumbwheels sit just inside the soundhole edge, so you can adjust your sound on stage without reaching for the amp. Nothing shows on the outside of the guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo drilling, gluing or saddle work.\u003c\/strong\u003e The sensors attach with peel-and-stick adhesive using the included placement jig. Your bridge and saddle stay exactly as they are, and the guitar's acoustic tone is untouched.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridge plate pickups hear the top vibrate, not just the strings, so they sound more like the guitar itself than an undersaddle piezo does. The HiFi DNA's split sensors and dual preamp circuits add warmth in the low mids and a smoother high end, with plenty of dynamics for fingerstyle and a punchy, even response for strumming in a band. Baggs rates its feedback resistance on par with its Element undersaddle pickup, so it holds up at stage volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Banjo Studio Loves the HiFi DNA\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt sounds like your guitar.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is one of the most natural-sounding single-source pickups we've heard, and you don't need a mic or a blend system to get there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt's invisible and reversible.\u003c\/strong\u003e No new holes beyond the endpin jack, nothing on the top and no change to the saddle, which matters on a vintage or high-end guitar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIt's built for real gigs.\u003c\/strong\u003e Good feedback resistance and a 9V battery rated for 260+ hours mean you can plug in and play.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe HiFi DNA is made for steel-string and 12-string acoustic guitars.
