The PowerTap Infinity pickup system from the brand - new Fishman Acoustic PowerTap™ series combines the excellent performance and tone of the Matrix Infinity undersaddle pickup system with a brand - new soundboard body sensor. This offers guitarists of all styles a whole new world of percussive performance elements and tactile dynamics. With Tap pickup technology, players can add new performance dynamics like Touch, Ambience, and Percussion. The Blend control, which is easy to adjust, mixes the Rare Earth and Tap signals in mono or allows both signals to run into separate channels using a stereo cable. This lets players add separate effects, control levels, and adjust EQ for each pickup independently, creating a remarkable soundscape from a single instrument. The redesigned, sealed enclosure for the soundhole - mounted Volume and Tone control module makes it effortless for players to adjust their sound. The preamp’s voicing switch has been repositioned for easy access, so players can adapt to different guitars, amplification options, playing styles, and performance scenarios. Specifications: Width: 1/8” (3.2mm); Undersaddle Pickup: Standard length of 2.65” (67.3 mm) fits most guitars with 2.5” (63.5 mm) string spacings; Body Sensor Pickup: Dimensions 2.54” (64.4 mm) width by .68” (17.3mm) height; Battery: 9 - volt.
Using the Fishman PowerTap Infinity is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is suitable for the undersaddle pickup. The standard length of 2.65” (67.3 mm) should fit most guitars with 2.5” (63.5 mm) string spacings. Install the battery, which is a 9 - volt one. When you start playing, you can use the easily adjustable Blend control to mix the signals as you like. You can either mix them in mono or use a stereo cable to run the signals into separate channels. This way, you can add different effects and adjust the levels and EQ for each pickup separately. The Volume and Tone control module near the soundhole is sealed and redesigned, so you can make adjustments to your sound easily. Also, the voicing switch is now easy to reach, allowing you to adapt to different situations. As for maintenance, keep the unit clean and dry. Check the battery regularly to ensure it has enough power. When not in use, store it in a safe place away from extreme temperatures and humidity.
