“I’ve played active and passive pickups in the past. Fishman Fluence are neither of those things but a combination of both. These pickups fill the space where a lot of traditional pickups seem to let me down. This is literally a new design that is taking off from a space where no other pickup has ever come from.” – Tosin Abasi, Animals As Leaders
Fishman PRF-MS7-TA2 Tosin Abasi 7 String Pickup Set 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.
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.
