FISHMAN RARE EARTHS UPDATED.
RE-VOICED, NEW SHAPE AND MOUNTING SYSTEM
The Fishman Rare Earth series of magnetic soundhole pickups have been updated.They've been re-voiced to feature a warmer Bass, a Mid-Cut, and a brighter sparkling treble response.
The case shape has been altered to enhance the looks when mounted in the guitar soundhole, and the clamping mounts are much more positive.
I have to say that Fishman have done a great job.
The sound of these new Rare Earths is as close as you can get to the original Mimesis pickups.
The pre amp and battery arrangement stays the same.
