Unleash the sonic fury of Deftones with the reimagined Fishman Fluence Stephen Carpenter Signature Series humbuckers.
Fishman Fluence and Deftones guitarist Stephen Carpenter have joined forces once again to deliver a new generation of signature humbuckers. These pickups build upon the acclaimed original Stephen Carpenter models, offering a reimagined voicing and an expanded tonal palette with the addition of a third, single-coil voice. Available for 6- to 9-string guitars, these pickups capture the essence of Carpenter's aggressive yet nuanced playing style, providing a powerful and versatile sonic experience for discerning guitarists.
Multi-Voice Flexibility for Unmatched Versatility
Each Stephen Carpenter Signature Series humbucker features three distinct voices, accessible via a push-pull pot or mini-toggle switch. This allows you to instantly switch between Stephen's signature active high-output tones, crisp and clean sounds, and a truly authentic single-coil voice. This multi-voice flexibility makes these pickups incredibly versatile, capable of covering a wide range of musical styles, from crushing metal riffs to soaring melodic leads.
Alnico and Ceramic Options for Tonal Exploration
The Stephen Carpenter Signature Series humbuckers are available in both alnico and ceramic versions, each offering a unique tonal character. The alnico pickups deliver a full, round, and boosted sound with exceptional articulation and dynamics, while the ceramic pickups provide a crisp, searing crunch with tight bass and a powerful growl. Choose the pickup that best suits your playing style and sonic preferences, or combine an alnico neck pickup with a ceramic bridge pickup for the ultimate tonal versatility.
