  • sorry - but it'd be way wiser to install that in a new D-28 rather than diminish the value of a guitar of that vintage by drilling out the endpin. That guitar is worth all original around 5-6k on the market today.

  • @ramblingdanwinnipeg : Doing what we do and the amount of vintage Martin's that we sell, we are well aware of that guitar's value. Given the fact that oversize ivoroid endpins are available if someone wants to remove a pickup and go back au natural, we do not feel that this type of modification diminishes the value of the guitar (although some of course disagree). In the end, it doesn't matter because the owner of this guitar will never sell it, gigs with it, and enjoys the pickup.

  • I pretty much followed your video along with looking on the LR Baggs website for orientation of the mic postion. I installed on a Recording King RD 227, which is pretty much crafted after a Martin Herringbone D 28 (HD-28). I must say, WOW!!! Man, huge sound, no feedback supressor in the sound hole. Sounds wonderfully natural. Thanks for posting.

  • Great guitar. Does the installation diminish it's value?

  • @CFMD28 In our opinion it does not. It is relatively easy to reverse, and while some would not want to buy a guitar such as this with pickup, many modern buyers are not concerned.

    Ah man. You guys left out the part that I wanted to see the most, which was how to instal the TruMic. I really wanted to see that. It's okay though. Oh BTW I have a Yamaha CG-201S. Do you think the Anthem is better for me as a posed to a Dean Markley ProMag? The price difference is huge, but if the Anthem will work better for my guitar, that is extra money I will gladly spend. Thanks in advance for any feedback and Hafa Adai from Guam!

  • @settah17 Yes, in our opinion the Anthem is the most natural, affordable system on the market currently.

  • Great Video! I didn't see the details of how to mount the microphone part of the system though. Thanks for posting.

  • Really great job guys - thanks.
