Default Acoustic Pickup Video Shootout: Baggs Anthem/Fishman Aura VT Enhance/K&K PWM

Acoustic Pickup Video Shootout:
LR Baggs Anthem[/LIST]Fishman Aura VT Enhance
K&K PWM (Pure Western Mini)

Guitars:
Collings OM1A w/LR Baggs Anthem
Martin OMC18E w/Fishman Aura VT Enhance
Martin D-18 Standard (2015) w/Baggs Anthem
Martin Outlaw 17 Ltd Ed w/K&K PWM

Obviously I could not compare pickups directly in an "Apples-to-Apples" scenario. But I thought it might be illimuninating and helpful to hear the natural acoustic tone and capabilities amplified. The informal and subjective shootout serves to demonstrate the natural amplified acoustic tone through Bose L1 Compact using a Fishman Platinum Pro EQ preamp on my pedalboard. No effects.



I also did a second video where I compared the Martin Outlaw to Martin D-18 Standard. The Outlaw has Mahogany back/sides, Adirondack spruce top/Adi bracing (forward shifted/Scalloped ala "Authentic") Herringbone purfling. So its like an Authentic-meets Martin GE in ways. The D-18 is Hog/Sitka with current Forward shifted/Scalloped bracing.
