Description
If your acoustic pickup sounds thin, quacky, or just not quite “you,” the Para DI is probably the missing link. L.R. Baggs built this thing to sit right in your string pocket and act as both a studio-grade direct box and a genuinely musical preamp — no separate DI needed for stage or studio.
The heart of it is L.R. Baggs’ proprietary Quasi-Passive EQ, a 5-band design with a tunable notch and midrange control. Unlike a lot of conventional EQs that color everything they touch, this circuitry stays transparent while still letting you shape the voicing — so you’re sculpting tone, not fighting it. Add in class “A” discrete circuitry, adjustable gain, and a phase switch for taming feedback, and you’ve got a preamp that’s equally at home with acoustic guitars, electric guitars, violins, bass, and other stringed instruments.
