Fluence Modern Humbuckers now available for the first time in Open Core format. Plus, a new optimized single coil third voice to extend the sonic possibilities of Fluence Modern Humbuckers.

8-String Open Core Modern Humbucker 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 and fluid): The clean, crisp neck humbucker tone you’ve always wanted without the thin, plinky sound you don’t.
Voice 3: (Single Coil): Glassy, crystal-clear tone.

Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern 7-string humbucker pickup in red with black nickel blades

8-String Open Core 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.

Voice 1 (Modern Active High Output): The ideal active ceramic humbucker tone. Crisp, searing crunch, tight bass with no mud, and a growl.
Voice 2 (Modern Passive Attack): Organic, high output, passive ceramic tone. Superb distortion characteristics with Fluence dynamics and response.
Voice 3: (Single Coil): Bright, clear tone.
