A Fishman Set Focused on Performance and Reliability
With the PRF-BS5-SB2, Fishman offers a pickup set designed for bassists seeking a clear, stable sound ready to handle demanding environments (rehearsals, concerts, recordings). The Black finish easily integrates with most basses while maintaining a sleek and professional look.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
This set is aimed at 5-string bass players who want better clarity on the low string without sacrificing attack precision. In rock, metal, funk, or gospel, the active electronics help maintain sharp definition in a dense mix, and the humbucker format promotes a clean signal, especially appreciated with high gain, compressors, or overdrive pedals.
Two Voices, Ceramic VIII Magnet, and Active Electronics: A Palette Tailored for the Mix
The presence of two voices with targeted peak frequencies allows quick adaptation of your tone: an option focused on body and presence (Voice 1 at 2 kHz), and a more incisive and detailed option (Voice 2 at 7 kHz). The bridge pickup uses a Ceramic VIII magnet, valued for its crisp attack and precise response, while the active electronics provide consistency and clarity. The 49 mm spacing ensures compatibility with configurations designed for this type of bass.
