Operation
Connect the Fluence equipped guitar to your amplifier with a ¼-inch instrument cable. To conserve
battery life, remove the instrument cable from the guitar when the system is not in use.
The pickups are hum-cancelling in all voice settings and pickup selector positions. Fluence pickup
voicing affects both pickups and is selected using the push button located in the center of the
control plate. Volume and tone controls operate in the traditional manner, however unlike traditional
passive pickups where treble response is altered with volume adjustment, Fishman Fluence pickups
retain their full factory tone at any volume position.
