Re: L.R. Baggs Radius M Mandolin Pick Up...Has anyone used one?
Lots of folks here use it. The difference between the models seems to be the attachment to various instruments, not the pickup itself. I have both this and the Schertler. They are different technologies. The Schertler provides a more microphone-like sound, but the Radius is more feedback resistant at high volumes, for me at least.
I use the Baggs ParaDI preamp for the Radius. I plug the Schertler directly into the mixing board. If you do that, the price tags aren't that much different, although many prefer to use a preamp for the Schertler as well.
