Fishman Fluence Signature Series Tosin Abasi 8-String Pickup Set - Black (soapbar mount)

Fishman Fluence Signature Series Tosin Abasi 8-String Guitar Pickup Set - PRF-MS8-TA2 - Black

Tosin Abasi has mastered a wide range of musical styles and techniques, so it should surprise no one that his signature series features the most diverse mix of tones packed into any Fluence pickup to date. Always on the cutting edge, Tosin’s tones defy convention. It took Fluence to unlock the sounds that have previously been stuck in Tosin’s head.

The tosin Abasi Signature Set is unique in the way it makes multiple coil combinations available, in conjunction with the different voices. Even the magnetic circuit is tuned, with pole pieces and a blade magnet combined in the neck position for authentic single coil interaction. For neck and bridge, Voice 1 begins with our Modern recipe and fattens up the low midrange while adjusting the output level to Tosin’s taste.

Voice 2 is bright and clean, with extremely fast and detailed top end for percussive attack and crystalline cleans. In the bridge, Voice 2 is a classic rock and hard rock tone that melts into any rig or mix. The cutting mid-range of an overwound ‘bucker with the glassy highs of a vintage P.A.F. Then, the single coil modes each have their own unique Voice. The neck pickup reminiscent of a vintage Tele, and the bridge pickup focusing on the quacky Strat-like “2 & 4” tones.


Fluence Signature Series Tosin Abasi Pickup Voicings:

• Voice 1: Modern, aggressive, heavy, with a bold midrange that doesn’t interfere with the highs and lows.
• Voice 2: Passive pickup perfection across the entire extended range. Deep yet crystalline in the neck, strong and cutting in the bridge.
• Voice 3 (Single Coil): Glassy, scooped, hi-fi
