Fishman Fluence Tosin Abasi 6-String Modern Humbucking Pickup Set

Fishman have long been at the top of the acoustic sound capture game, their incredible range of acoustic pickups and compact amplifiers making them a great option for the gigging player.

One of the hottest new product ranges on the market is the Fishman Fluence, a new imagining of the classic pickup, Fishman have pushed the boundaries of traditional pickup construction. Unlike most pickups, the Fluence does not rely on wound wire to deliver superior tone, this eliminates hum and induction issues that often plague wire wound pickups.

Tosin Abasi is the fleet fingered virtuoso mastermind behind prog giants Animals as Leaders. With his innovative, diverse approach to 8 string guitar, he needs a pickup set that can cope with a frequency range much broader than your typical guitar player.

The Tosin Abasi Signature Set is unique in the way it makes multiple coil combinations available, in conjunction with the different voices. Even the magnetic circuit is tuned, with pole pieces and a blade magnet combined in the neck position for authentic single coil interaction. For neck and bridge, Voice 1 begins with our Modern recipe and fattens up the low midrange while adjusting the output level to Tosin's taste. Voice 2 is bright and clean, with extremely fast and detailed top end for percussive attack and crystalline cleans. In the bridge, Voice 2 is a classic rock and hard rock tone that melts into any rig or mix. Then, the single coil modes each have their own unique Voice, the neck pickup reminiscent of a vintage Tele, and the bridge pickup focusing on the quacky Strat-like 2 & 4 tones.
