Fishman FLUENCE KEITH MERROW Bedienungsanleitung
INSTALLATION GUIDE
FLUENCE KEITH MERROW CUSTOM SET
1. Determine the rotary controls (Volume, Tone, etc.) and switches to be used in your
installation, including those included with your purchase. Test fit the components to
make sure that each will fit in the allocated locations or modify the instrument until the
fit is correct and all controls can be located without issue. Fishman Fluence Pickups are
active and require 25K audio taper potentiometers.
2. Fishman Fluence multi-voice pickups require a 9V power supply.
• If using a standard 9V battery, test fit cavity locations for simple installations or
consider installing an externally accessible battery compartment (available separate-
ly.) Note that it is important the battery is not allowed to short contacts between
controls in the instrument.
• If using a separately purchased Fishman rechargeable battery, refer to those
instructions to complete this part of your installation.
• Note that it may be possible to combine other active pickups with Fishman Flu-
ence pickups, but all pickups will need to use the same 9V power source. Only active
pickup combinations are supported.
Getting Started

These instructions provide installation options for the Fishman Fluence series of multi-voice
pickups, but these instructions are not comprehensive. A skilled electronics technician
can simply interpret this overview to create a wide range of custom wiring options. Please
consult with your installer for alternate switching and control components or options not
specifically detailed in this guide or included with your pickup purchase. Please visit www.
fishman.com for additional wiring diagrams.
By self-installing and/or misusing this product, you understand and agree that and such uses

3. The various pickup voicing options are easily activated by connecting the cor-
responding control wires to Ground. Any of these options can be made switch select-
able using the included push-pull pots or other preferred switches. They can also be
permanently wired by either connecting to Ground or leaving “open” (unconnected).
See the “Connection Points and Functions” section for helpful details.
4.
Review your planned scheme for errors, complete the soldering, mount and secure
all your components, and test your completed installation before assembly. Consider
a popular wiring option as shown on the reverse side of this guide or visit
www.fishman.com for additional wiring diagrams.

Fluence Classic Open Core – Connection Points & Functions
1. HFT (High Frequency Tilt) - This feature is for players who prefer a
darker top end, similar to the effect of using passive pickups loaded
by a long instrument cable.
To activate, connect the HFT contact pad to ground either wired
through a switch or permanently by creating a solder bridge to the
GND pad next to it.
The HFT pad is carrying signal. To prevent unwanted interaction, it
should not share a switch contact with any other HFT or voice select
wire.
2. Voice-2 Select Wire - To select Voice-2, connect this pin to ground
through a switch contact or permanently by soldering it to any
ground or by using one of the included jumpers across the pins.

This pin is an electronically controlled switch and has no signal on it. It can share a
switch contact with other voice select wires without interaction.
Note: the Single Coil / Voice-3 select pin (3) over rides Voice-2 select. Therefore, the
Voice-3 pin must be disconnected (not grounded) to allow Voice-2 selection.
3. Single Coil / Voice-3 Select Wire - To select Voice-3, connect this pin to ground
through a switch contact.
In Single Coil mode, the default active coils are the inner ones when used as a Bridge/
Neck pair. (i.e. neck side coil active on Bridge pickup and bridge side coil active on
Neck) See Note (4) to change default active coils in Single Coil mode.
When selected, Single Coil / Voice-3 mode over rides the status of Voice-1 or 2.
4. Single Coil Mode Select - A row of three solder pads is used to select the active coil
in Single Coil / Voice-3 mode
7
The active coil is selected by a solder bridge connecting the corresponding outer pad
to the center one.
The pickups ship from the factory with the inner coils (when used as a Bridge/Neck
pair) set as the default. To change the active coils to the outer ones, remove the solder
bridge and create a new one from the other outer pad to the center. To avoid dam-
aging the pads, solder wick or a desoldering pump are strongly recommended for
removing the solder bridge.
5. SCO (South Coil Out) - This solder pad is used to conveniently access the south coil
output on each pickup for HSH (Humbucker, Single, Humbucker) and HSS pickup com-
binations using the Fluence SSA Single width pickup.
The south coil is on the neck side of each pickup. The SSA pickup is a north coil, allow-
ing hum cancelling combinations in the 2&4 positions on a 5-way pickup switch.
8
6. +9-18V - This is the + dc power input pin. Fluence pickups are designed to have a
wide dynamic range running from a 9V supply, however they are 18V compatible for
instruments already set up that way.
7. Output - The main output pin has a 2k ohm output impedance and is suitable for
driving low impedance volume and tone pots, typically 25k.
