Fishman Fluence Classic Humbucker Pickup Set – Nickel

Experience the timeless sound of classic humbuckers with modern tonal versatility using the Fishman PRF-CHB-SN2 Fluence Classic Humbucker Pickup Set – Nickel. Featuring a matched pair of neck and bridge pickups, this innovative active pickup system combines the warmth and character of vintage humbuckers with exceptional clarity, reduced noise and selectable tonal voices.

Powered by Fishman’s revolutionary Fluence Core technology, these pickups move beyond conventional wire-wound pickup construction to deliver consistent tone, excellent articulation and outstanding musical performance. Designed for guitarists who appreciate traditional humbucker sounds but want greater flexibility, the Fluence Classic set offers a versatile solution for blues, classic rock, hard rock, fusion and contemporary electric guitar styles.

The Fluence Classic Neck Pickup is designed to deliver the warmth, depth and expressive character of a vintage PAF-style humbucker. Its first voice produces a smooth, balanced sound with classic dynamics and clarity, making it ideal for warm chords, melodic leads and expressive clean playing.

Its second voice offers a clearer, airier response with sparkling high frequencies, vocal-like midrange and controlled bass. This expanded tonal character is particularly useful for detailed chord work, expressive melodies and players seeking additional definition from their neck pickup.

The Fluence Classic Bridge Pickup delivers the powerful, articulate sound associated with vintage and hot-rodded humbuckers. Its first voice provides calibrated vintage PAF bridge tone with balanced output and natural dynamics, while its second voice produces a more aggressive hot-rodded character with stronger punch and greater drive for rock-oriented performances.

Current Fluence Classic specifications also feature a third single-coil-style voice, expanding the available tonal possibilities for compatible versions of the pickup set.

Both pickups use Alnico V magnets, combining responsive attack with rich harmonic content and a musical, dynamic playing feel. Their active electronic design helps minimise unwanted hum and noise while maintaining clarity across a wide range of amplifier settings.

The Fluence Classic Humbuckers are designed as replacements for standard-size six-string electric guitar humbuckers. Their versatile multi-voice operation can be controlled using compatible switches or push-pull potentiometers, allowing guitarists to select different sounds without changing pickups.

Unlike traditional passive humbuckers, the Fluence system requires a power source. It operates using a 9V battery or a compatible optional Fishman rechargeable battery pack, offering up to approximately 200 hours of playing time under the manufacturer’s specified conditions.

Finished with elegant Nickel covers, the pickups provide a premium appearance suitable for both vintage-inspired and modern electric guitars.

Whether you’re upgrading your existing humbuckers or building a versatile custom instrument, the Fishman Fluence Classic Humbucker Pickup Set delivers classic warmth, powerful bridge tones, exceptional clarity and modern multi-voice flexibility in one complete neck-and-bridge pickup set.
