Legendary Deftones guitarist Collabs with Fishman Fluence

Stephen Carpenter, renowned guitarist of the hard rock/ heavy metal band Deftones, boasts an illustrious profile in the music industry. Stephen’s Fluence Signature Series Humbuckers have undergone a significant transformation with a new and reimagined voicing across a range of 6 to 9-string options, while retaining the unique and exclusive glow-in-the-dark Fluence accent line. Utilizing the revolutionary Fluence Core, we’ve enhanced Stephen’s previous model by introducing a distinctive Voice 3 to each pickup. This innovation offers an authentic crystal clear single-coil tone, seamlessly integrated with the two beloved voices that Stephen has come to love.

3-VOICE 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.

VOICE 1

MODERN ACTIVE
HIGH OUTPUT

The ideal active alnico sound. Full, round, and boosted, but with unprecedented articulation and dynamics.

VOICE 2

Crisp, Clean, & Fluid

The clean, crisp neck humbucker tone you’ve always wanted without the thin, plinky sound you don’t.

VOICE 3

Ideal Single Coil

Glassy, scooped, hi-fi.

3-VOICE CERAMIC

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

VOICE 1

Stephen’s Active High Output

The ideal active ceramic humbucker tone. Crisp, searing crunch, tight bass with no mud, and a growl.

VOICE 2

Stephen's Passive Attack

Organic, high output, passive ceramic tone. Superb distortion characteristics with Fluence dynamics and response.

VOICE 3

Ideal Single Coil

Cutting, overwound single coil
