LR Baggs AEG-1 'Sunburst' Acoustic Electric Guitar

The LR Baggs AEG-1 is a purpose-built stage instrument that fuses classic acoustic tonewoods with cutting-edge design and the company’s flagship electronics. A solid Sitka spruce top and a solid rosewood back are inset into lightweight poplar composite sides, then supported by scalloped X-bracing and an integrated neck support structure. The result is a thin, comfortable body that still delivers a surprisingly big, touch-responsive acoustic voice with clear highs, focused mids, and a musical low end.

Plugged in is where the AEG-1 truly shines. The HiFi Duet system combines HiFi bridge-plate pickups with the Silo mic and a studio-grade preamp, giving you blendable, feedback-resistant tone that translates nuance on any stage. A fast African mahogany neck with a modern “C” profile, deep cutaway, and Indian rosewood fingerboard invites effortless playability up to all 20 frets—ready for fingerstyle detail, singer-songwriter strumming, and everything in between.
