Excellant sound and value

| Review By: RW | 4 months, 21 hours ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

The volume and tone controls at your fingertips are really handy.

Quality:

The sound produced will make your guitar sound like its worth thousands (or more thousands)

Value:

It is worth every penny

Overall:

I put this pickup on a Martin DX1 acoustic (narrow format is for Martin guitars). With an inexpensive acoustic amp (the Acoustic AG30) the quality of sound blew me away. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is because the adhesive that is provided to mount the volume and tone controls just inside the sound hole of the guitar was insufficient to hold that device really good..There is a bass boost switch on that same control that take some pressure to toggle the switch and that also tends to pull the mount off of the inside of the guitar where its mounted. My solution was to take two little pinches of glue to the surface of the control mount and secure it that way. Its plastic onto the wood (inside of the guitar). I don't know if this method would at all be recommened by any luthier but it has worked for me. (and I don't toggle the bass boost button--I have just leave it in the "on" position. It would seem that Fishman might want to come up with a better way of mounting this, maybe some type of mounting clip, or whatever. (even if it's a lettle visible). Maybe you will have better luck with that. It is a minor point. I would still recommend this pickup without any reservations.

BIG UPGRADE

| Review By: R.M.Fornwald | 5 months, 2 weeks ago

1 people out of 1 found this review helpful

Features:

Once mounted by a professional, It's easy to adjust and unobtrusive.

Quality:

I've always liked Fishman and am not dissapointed in any way with this upgrade.

Value:

Worth every penny including installation cost by a Luthier.

Overall:

Clarity is stunning. Tonal adjustment for solo stage or studio work is built in and at the finger tips. Any amp I've played through is fine with this pickup/preamp setup in the guitar. Incredible upgrade from the 30 year old system that bit the dust. Now an old 300$ Yamaha 400 series acoustic from the 1980's sounds like a brand new 1800$ guitar. Yup, I'd say I bought the right gizmo for the old Gitter.

I've used several different types of after-market pickups in acoustic guitars over the past 40 years, from first generation piezos from DeArmond and Barcus-Berry to unpre-amped Fishmans, Mighty Mite, Shadow, and Dean Markleys.  I have this one installed in a Breedlove AD20/SR Plus dread and it is a match made in heaven.  The "tone" control really acts as a contour-type EQ and eliminates some of the boominess caused by having an oversized rosewood body on the guitar.  I like this one so much I'm having one added to my Yamaha 12-string.

It really depends on the guitar you put it in! I happen to have purchased an Epiphone (John Lennon) and restrung it with Elixr Strings and had one of these installed! Everytime I play it, The comments fly. Players who own $3000 Taylors say it sounds better than theirs. I couldn't be happier with it. If the guitar has a good sound to begin with it will only be better with this. I also have a Larivee with a fishman in it as well. No pre-amp and no other controls but it still sounds fantastic. Fishman knows how to do it!

This Pick-up works GREAT For Me

Overall:
I just put the Matrix Infinity in a Seagull Coastline S6 Sunburst GT in which I had already upgraded the bidge pins & saddle with custom bone replacements from Bob Colesi some months ago.  I was lucky enough to also get a perfect string action set-up by Colin Sprague who did the work installing this pick-up system in Richmond, VA.  It sounds awesome, especially plugged in...and I have had no problems, or complaints, about it.  I do wish there was actual local EQ's.  But way the tone knob works is the next best thing.  Assuming you get a good set-up, I'm sure you will not be disappointed with the Matrix.  No string is a perfect match for every guitar.  But I find these two do really well on a dreadnaught with the Matrix.  Daddario EXP, light gauge, phosher bronze, (not 80/20).  Elixir, same gauge and type.  The 80/20 may be a bit "tinny" on some guitars.  To optimize the sound, do yourself a favor and get a bone saddle, and bridge pins if you don't already have them...peace!
