Any experience with the Fishman Fluence Javier Reyes Humbuckers?

  • I‘m quite a fan of the Fishman Fluence pickups, for their clarity and versatility. I use them in three of my guitars and I love it.

    Now I‘ve put an eye on the Javier Reyes signature humbuckers to put them into a 2006 PRS SE Standard 22 (a cheap but awsome all mahagony, SGish guitar). I pretty much like the sound samples of the pickups available on youtube. But - as the sound is quite scooped - I wonder if the humbucker are a tad too far away from the PAF / SH-4 "standard" sound to play classic rock etc.

    So, if any one here has some experience with the Fishman Fluence Javier Reyes Humbuckers, I´d appreciate any information and opinion

  • Don't know who Javier Reyes is. But if you like the sound of fishman fluence you will probably like those too. I guess the difference between regular fishmans are very small. A little more bass or a little more treble and then they charge more for those pickups. Like SD did with the Slash pickups.
