Richard Z Kruspe, the world - famous lead guitarist of the industrial band Rammstein known for their fiery live shows and dedicated fans, is behind this amazing pickup set. The Fluence Signature Series is a game - changer, bringing three unique and useful sounds to Modern ceramic and Modern alnico humbuckers with a hybrid magnet setup.

Using the Fishman Fluence Signature Series Richard Z Kruspe 6 - String Pickup Set is a breeze. First, for installation, you can easily drop it in to replace your standard humbucker pickups. It's as simple as that! When it comes to choosing the right voice for your playing, you have three great options for both the neck and bridge pickups. You can either set it to your favorite voice and forget about it, or wire it up to toggle between the voices according to your musical needs.
If you choose the optional lithium - ion battery pack, you'll get more playing time between charges compared to a standard 9V battery. Just make sure to recharge it regularly to avoid any interruptions during your jam sessions. The battery life for the whole set can last up to 110 hours, so you can play for a long time.
As for maintenance, keep your pickup set clean. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dust or debris. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture, as this can damage the pickups. If you're not using the pickups for a long time, store them in a cool, dry place. And always follow the safety instructions when handling the battery, whether it's a 9V or the rechargeable option.
