Fishman Fluence Modern Active 6-String Humbucker Pickup Set - Black | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The Fishman Fluence Modern Active Humbucker Set is a two-piece, six-voiced pickup system that redefines tonal flexibility for humbucker-equipped guitars — delivering active, passive, and single-coil voicings from a single set of pickups. Including one Fluence Modern Alnico humbucker for the neck position and one Fluence Modern Ceramic humbucker for the bridge, this set gives players access to six distinct voices before mixing and matching positions. For modern players in Idaho Falls and beyond who demand maximum versatility and zero noise from their guitar pickups, the Fishman Fluence Modern set is one of the most capable active humbucker upgrades on the market today.
Product Overview
Each Fishman Fluence Modern pickup is built around Fishman's proprietary multi-layer coil technology — a construction method that eliminates the hum, noise, and inconsistency of traditional wound pickups while preserving and expanding their tonal character. The set ships with both a Fluence Modern Alnico V humbucker and a Fluence Modern Ceramic humbucker, each independently offering three switchable voices for a combined total of six distinct tonal options. The standard humbucker form factor and included solderless installation hardware make fitting these pickups into most HH-routed guitars a straightforward process with minimal modification required.
The Fluence Modern Alnico — typically positioned at the neck — covers three distinct voices: Voice 1 delivers modern active alnico humbucker power with clear, articulate note definition; Voice 2 captures the warmer, more open character of classic passive alnico neck humbuckers; and Voice 3 adds a crisp, chime-forward single-coil voicing that brings an entirely different tonal texture to the neck position. The Fluence Modern Ceramic — typically at the bridge — mirrors this three-voice architecture: Voice 1 produces a screaming active ceramic bite with ultra-tight low end and a mud-free high-gain response; Voice 2 offers the more open, dynamic feel of a high-output passive ceramic humbucker; and Voice 3 captures the spank and grit of a bridge-position ceramic single-coil.
Power is supplied either by a standard 9V battery or Fishman's optional dedicated power supply, delivering up to 200 hours of playtime per charge cycle — weeks of regular playing without the constant battery anxiety associated with most active pickup systems. A 2K DC resistance rating and 5-wire plus ground and battery connectivity round out the technical profile of a pickup set engineered for the demands of modern high-gain playing at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls.
Ideal For

- Idaho Falls electric guitar players seeking a professional active humbucker upgrade from a trusted local guitar shop
Key Features
Six Independent Tonal Voices Across Two Pickups Each Fishman Fluence Modern pickup — Alnico at the neck, Ceramic at the bridge — offers three switchable voices covering active humbucker, passive humbucker, and single-coil tonal characters. The result is six distinct sounds from one set, covering clean, crunch, and high-gain territory across both positions.
Fluence Modern Alnico — Neck Pickup (3 Voices) Voice 1 delivers modern active alnico humbucker clarity and power. Voice 2 captures the warmer, more open feel of a classic passive alnico neck humbucker. Voice 3 introduces a chimey, expressive single-coil character to the neck position — a versatility previously impossible from a single pickup.
Fluence Modern Ceramic — Bridge Pickup (3 Voices) Voice 1 produces screaming active ceramic bite with ultra-tight low end and a crisp, mud-free high-gain response favored by modern metal players. Voice 2 opens up into the dynamic, slightly looser feel of a high-output passive ceramic humbucker. Voice 3 delivers the spank and grit of a bridge-position single-coil ceramic.
Up to 200 Hours of Battery Life Compatible with standard 9V batteries or Fishman's optional power supply, the Fluence Modern set delivers up to 200 hours of uptime — weeks of regular playing without the battery anxiety of conventional active pickups.
Solderless Installation with Standard HH Routing The included solderless wiring harness and standard humbucker dimensions make installation on most HH-routed guitars achievable without routing modifications or complex wiring work, lowering the barrier to a professional active pickup upgrade.
Proprietary Multi-Layer Coil Construction Fishman's Fluence coil technology eliminates hum and noise at the source while delivering consistent, repeatable tonal character — no pickup-to-pickup variation, no 60-cycle hum, and no signal degradation across the frequency range.
