Overview

The power and presence of alnico without the annoying hum.

Original and totally re-imagined, Fishman Fluence pickups, like this Modern Humbucker Audio 8-String Pickup, are free from the hum, noise and frustrating inductance issues that plague even the most coveted wire-wound pickups — revealing pure, uncorrupted and musical tone.

Modern Humucker Alnico
All the musicality, power and explosiveness of alnico. Full chords and fluid solos, plus a voice you’ve never heard in a humbucker. Great in both positions, or commonly paired with a ceramic bridge pickup.

Modern Humbucker Ceramic
Cutting ceramic attack. Brutal active aggression and passive punch in the same guitar. Great in both positions, or commonly paired with alnico neck.

Each Fishman Fluence pickup has two distinct and useful sounds onboard. These sounds start with the revolutionary Fluence Core, the heart of Fluence tone. From this Fluence Core Fishman then creates the classic timbres and tone — colors you expect from great guitar pickups — as well as some you’ve never expected.

All Fishman Fluence Pickups:
• Are multi-voice. Set and forget, or wire-up to toggle between two musically complimentary voices.
• Drop right in and replace standard humbucker pickups.
• Are rechargeable on your guitar. Optional lithium-ion battery pack offers weeks, not hours, of playing time.
