I don't Need it for live playing , only for recording (slide guitar Sound)
As my guitar is an expensive custom made one I don't want to order another guitar or buy one that lacks the Features my acoustic one has.
I wouldn't mind buying an Amplifier or pickup for it.
I just don't want to buy another guitar (yeah, I know, thats rare)

Lr Baggs Anthem installed.

Thanks for your help in advance.


It's a Wee lowden if it matters (24inch scale/small Body size)

Do you want 'it' to sound acoustic, or electric?

If you want it to sound electric I would highly suggest getting a magnetic sound-hole pickup, preferably with adjustable pole pieces if you're using bronze strings.

If you don't mind switching (temporarily) to nickel wound strings, a la D'Addario J-21 or 22, then string balance should be less of an issue.

Then you need an interface, or an amp of your choice and a good microphone.

Have you tried pugging it straight into an electric amp just using the Baggs? That might do the job...
