Fishman Prefix Plus Narrow

Prefix Plus Narrow description:

The Fishman PREFIX PLUS NARROW Acoustic Guitar Preamp Includes Acoustic Matrix under saddle pickup. An instrument-mounted pickup / preamp system that offers total control of your amplified guitar sound.

The Fishman Prefix Plus Narrow includes a FISHMAN Acoustic Matrix pickup; made with a unique co-polymer sensing material available exclusively from Fishman. This technology is not available from any other manufacturer. The sensing material exhibits a sensitivity and dynamic range that far surpasses all other known sensing materials. The Acoustic Matrix transducer is a fully EMI shielded, multi-layer sandwich of co-polymer strips that run the length of the pickup. This design allows the pickup to sense the motion of the entire saddle length, providing superb string to string balance, as well as sensitivity to both the strings and top of the instrument. The PREFIX PLUS preamp module incorporates a unique "flip-top" battery compartment for easy access. Level is set by the VOLUME control. A variable NOTCH filter, shelving BASS and TREBLE , semi-parametric CONTOUR, and BRILLIANCE controls are included for precise tone shaping and fighting feedback. There is also a PHASE reversal switch and a low battery indicator. The PREFIX PLUS can be plugged into any instrument-level audio input with excellent results.
