There is a lot of great info from some very seasoned guitarists in this thread. I played my Martin Outlaw today with the K&K and after some EQ'ing on my Baggs Align EQ and the Fishman Loudbox, I was getting a very musical sound.
Then I plugged in my Martin D-18 cutaway w/factory installed Anthem. Game over. The Anthem has so much more detail and sounds great. Even straight in. I have the Full Anthem.
I do agree there is a Baggs "house-sound" with the Tru-Mic. I also hear it in all of the ones I've played. but it just 'works' for my gigs and I get compliments on my sound a lot.
I think the ease of use and the overall sonic voice is fantastic and the Baggs Anthem remains my preference.
