3. One or more of your Fluence pickups will have a preamp built into the base of the pickup
assembly. Preamplified pickups each have their own switching capabilities. In setups controlled
by a single preamp, such as the Fluence Single-Width set, optional switching on the preampli-
fied pickup will alter the output of all pickups connected to that preamplifier. The preamps on
Fishman Fluence pickups are not suitable for use with other brands of guitar pickups.
4. All Pickup Voicing, High Frequency Tilt (HF Tilt) and Gain reduction features are selected
by connecting their leads to Ground. These features and their wire locations are described in
the user guide accompanying each pickup. During installation, any of these selections can be
made switchable (using the included push-pull pot or other preferred switch) or permanent by
either connecting to Ground or leaving “open” (unconnected). Some switching scenarios are
provided below, featuring the components provided with your purchase, but any schematic
allowing connection to Ground can be used.
5. Review your planned scheme for errors, complete the soldering, mount and secure all your
components, and test your completed installation before assembly. Consider a popular wiring
option as shown on the reverse side of this guide.
