The Fluence Core that powers the Gristle-Tone pickup set provides you with the choice of two selectable voices. The pickup's first voice is reminiscent of a the old White-Guard Tele-style guitars from the '60s. This is the chimey and clear sound that powers the best chicken pickin' lines. The second voice invokes a '50s Black-Guard guitar for a muscular and punchy character. The voices can be accessed by any number of standard switches or push/pull controls, and can be added as a completely reversible modification to most guitars.

Greg Koch has made a huge name for himself with the sound of vintage single-coil pickups. But vintage single coils often bring with them hum, buzz, and inductance issues. Fishman Fluence pickups use an active design to send a low impedance signal, allowing you to run long cable runs with no signal loss. And you won't experience any signal loading when working your volume knob for cleaning up your guitar's tone. And best of all, you can run these pickups as hot as you want with no 60-cycle hum or interference.

Fishman Fluence is a revolutionary new way to look at the art of pickup building. To deliver their wide range of tones, noise-free performance, and low-impedance signal, these pickups require a power source and specially designed pots. All of this is included with every pickup. Inside the package, you'll find the pickups, wiring, push-pull and standard 25k potentiometers that are ideal for the active circuitry, and more. Installing a set of Fishman Fluence pickups is a quick and easy way to achieve your electric guitar's full potential.
