Fishman

The Fluence Bass Soapbar pickup brings revolutionary Fluence Multi-Voice performance, dynamic range, and articulation to 4, 5, and now 6 String and Multi-Scale bassists.

Based on Fishman's convention-disrupting Fluence Core technology, a single bass pickup can now produce multiple timbres and sounds, each untethered from the other. Original and totally re-imagined, Fluence Multi-Voice pickups for electric bass are free from the hum, noise and frustrating inductance issues that plague even the most coveted wire-wound pickups, revealing pure, uncorrupted bass tone.

Like all Fluence pickups, the Bass Soapbar pickups are multi-voice and can be powered by a Fluence rechargeable battery pack or a standard 9-Volt battery. Additionally, Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups can be split for single-coil operation or paired with the on board Treble and Bass control to further expand the tonal palette.

• Push-pull pot for volume/coil split
