Blender specifications

The Fishman Blender is an innovative acoustic instrument designed to elevate the tone and performance of musicians across various genres. This advanced pickup system is specifically crafted for acoustic guitars, offering unparalleled versatility and sound quality. One of the main features of the Fishman Blender is its unique combination of the renowned Fishman Acoustic Matrix undersaddle pickup and an internal microphone. This dual-source setup allows musicians to blend the direct sound from the pickup with the natural resonance captured by the microphone, resulting in a rich and full-bodied tone that emulates the true character of the guitar.

The Fishman Blender utilizes sophisticated technologies to enhance the end-user experience. The onboard preamp includes an intuitive blending control that allows players to adjust the mix of the pickup and microphone signals seamlessly during live performances. This feature offers great flexibility, enabling musicians to cater the sound to their preferences or environmental conditions in real-time. Additionally, the preamp includes a built-in EQ, providing further control over the audio output. This allows users to shape their sound by adjusting bass, midrange, and treble frequencies according to their needs.

One of the standout characteristics of the Fishman Blender is its exceptional feedback rejection. Thanks to its balanced design and intelligent positioning, it effectively minimizes unwanted feedback during amplified performances, a common challenge for acoustic musicians. The Fishman Blender is also engineered for easy installation, enabling guitarists to retrofit their instruments without major modifications or damage.

Another notable characteristic is its compact size and lightweight construction, making the system easy to handle. The Fishman Blender is powered by a standard 9-volt battery, ensuring reliable performance and longevity during extended playing sessions. The durability of the materials used in the construction of the pickup and preamp ensures that the Fishman Blender meets the demands of rigorous touring musicians.

Overall, the Fishman Blender stands out as a versatile, high-performance acoustic pickup system that effectively captures the essence of an acoustic guitar.
