Tweaked for Maximum Performance

Optimized for today's acoustic amplifiers, the Matrix Infinity Mic Blend delivers the clear, transparent tone Fishman is known for. It all starts with the Acoustic Matrix, Fishman's best-selling under-saddle pickup. Then a multi-position cardioid condenser capsule takes its performance even further, supplying you with increased air and tactile tone. A discreet Microphone Blend control makes tweaking the mix of these two signals easy, and you can shape your sound further with soundhole-mounted Volume and Tone controls. The Tone control cuts mids while boosting treble and bass. Beyond that, a voicing switch accommodates your guitar's body size and performance situation. The Matrix Infinity Mic Blend employs solderless connections for easy installation.

Result of over two decades of R&D

Resulting from over two decades of collective R&D, the Matrix Infinity Mic Blend offers exceptional musicality, superb balance from string to string, absolute accuracy and ease of installation. Starting with the popular Acoustic Matrix pickup as a point of departure, the Matrix Infinity Mic Blend includes a soft-touch endpin-mounted preamp for a sophisticated level of sound quality and responsiveness to your touch. Add to that a multi-position cardioid condenser capsule for enhanced air and tactile tone, and you've got one of the most advanced acoustic pickups on the market

Exceptional sound and versatility

Key to the evolved design of the Matrix Infinity Mic Blend is soundhole-mounted rotary Volume and Tone controls that allow you to make easily accessible dynamic and tonal adjustments. The Tone control cuts mids while boosting the bass and treble response to enhance the tonal characteristic and impact of any amplified acoustic guitar, from classical nylon string instruments to Dreadnought and Jumbo acoustic models. Taking the pickup's tonal variation capability one step further, the Matrix Infinity also incorporates a switchable voicing feature to accommodate all guitar body sizes and different performance situations in one pickup.

Four models available

Exceptionally roadworthy, the Matrix Infinity Mic Blend is available in two saddle slot widths — a wide 1/8" format (Gibson) or narrow 3/32" format (Martin). A Split format is available for instruments with two saddles (Lowden) — a short one for the E and B strings, and a longer one for the remaining four strings. You can also get a ukulele version. The Matrix Infinity Mic Blend requires a 9V battery (not included) and professional installation is recommended.

Outstanding Device

Had this installed into a 2007 Martin D35, Its as close to putting my ear on the top as anything I have ever used or heard. Plenty of gain and range. Not prone to a lot of feedback in a live set. Bluegrass and old Country.
Music background: Weekender, pro when can get the work.

Fisherman matrix infinity blend system installation

Installed the fisherman matrix infinity blend system on a hand bilt 000 guitar. Installation went smoothly after down loading the instructions. The system has a natural acoustic sound without the artificial amplified effects. I would say fishan has got it right..

Best acoustic guitar pickup system

This was a very easy install on a Martin DM guitar, and I would have given it 5 stars, except for a couple of minor issues I had:
1: The Velcro which holds the battery bag didn't stick well, but I was able to replace it with some industrial Velcro I had.
2: Both controls also came off as well, which I fixed by applying a little Elmer's Wood Glue to hold them in place.The microphone so far has not come off.

Now to what I really like about this is that you don't have a pickup, and cable in the way like those that fit in the sound hole. You also have much more control over the tone with the low pass filter switch, and the blend, and tone controls.

The installation was pretty easy. Martin already had the hole where the wire for the pick drilled through the bridge, so I only had to continue drilling through the sound board. Drilling the hole where the input jack goes was a little trickier, as I didn't have a drill bit that was large enough, but if your careful you can use the smaller bit to widen the hole. Just be careful not to make it too large. Before dealing with the wires inside the guitar, I put strings on it to test it to make sure everything was working properly. Once that was done, I just had to loosen the strings enough to get my hand inside to tidy up the wires.

Good Pickup

Pickup system is quite good. But if you need to replace any of the adhesive that mounts the devices to your guitar you are out of luck. Fishman does not sell it. You ill have to buy a complete new mounting unit with the strips on it.

Want to make your guitar sound its best? Take it from the lifelong performers at Sweetwater and check out Fishman. If you've bought an acoustic-electric guitar, there's a good chance it came with Fishman electronics, but it's easy enough to upgrade your favorite instrument too - just ask the pros in Sweetwater's Guitar Repair Shop. Do you perform? Are you a singer/songwriter? We'd love to turn you on to Fishman's Loudbox amps and amazing pedals. But Fishman isn't limited to acoustic electronics. Many of us have tricked out our electric guitars with Fishman Fluence pickups and TriplePlay wireless MIDI systems too.
