A Signature Series Crafted for a Huge, Modern Sound
Inspired by Richard Z's demanding standards and his massive guitar tone, this Fishman Fluence Signature Series set is designed to deliver a powerful wall of sound while maintaining exemplary definition. The "Brushed Stainless" metal finish offers a unique aesthetic, perfectly suited for a modern metal-oriented guitar.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This set is aimed at musicians who alternate between heavy riffs, dense chords, and more open passages without wanting to switch guitars. Whether in the studio or on stage, it targets a fast response, tight lows, and clear articulation-ideal for low tunings, precise palm-muting, and industrial or modern metal tones.
Three Voices Per Pickup: From High Output to True Single Coil
This set is among the first Modern humbuckers to offer three distinct voices on both ceramic and alnico versions, thanks to a hybrid magnet configuration and Fluence architecture. You can stick to a "set and forget" setting or wire the system to switch between complementary voices in a musical context.
Neck Pickup (Alnico) : combines musicality, power, and expressiveness. Voice 1 delivers a full, round, and boosted Modern Active High Output sound with very precise dynamics. Voice 2 targets a clear, clean, and fluid humbucker tone without excessive harshness. Voice 3 offers a true single-coil tone-bright, precise, and hi-fi.
Bridge Pickup (Ceramic) : sharp attack, aggressiveness, and punch. Voice 1 provides the Modern Active High Output ceramic tone, with burning crunch and tight lows. Voice 2 highlights the Modern Passive Attack-more organic and very effective with distortion, featuring great responsiveness. Voice 3 delivers a bright and clear single-coil sound that cuts through the mix with precision.
