Hi, I recently purchased 2 x LR Bagg's anthem pick up systems to fit into my 2 Lowden guitars.
Unfortunately, because the Lowden has a split saddle, I'm told by my installer that the supplied single under saddle element can't be fitted. My installer went ahead and installed just the Tru Mic component without the element, but this sounds quite terrible - there is no bass to the amplified sound (I assume because the element is also required?).
I've since learnt that LR Baggs sell a special Lowden Anthem system with a split element - i.e. I ordered the standard Anthem system by mistake

I was wondering, do LR Bagg's sell just the split under saddle element separately (or another supplier)?
Alternatively, can the single element I have be fitted to a Lowden, e.g. by cutting the element into the parts and custom wiring somehow? (I'm guessing probably not but worth asking!)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed, because I've spent quite a lot on the 2 Anthem systems, so I'm hoping I can just purchase the split element component or modify the existing one.
Thanks a lot to anyone who can help me on this!
Mike
