Fluence Tosin Abasi 7-string Signature 2-piece Pickup Set - Black Review

Great for modern metal and beautiful cleans

I put these in an Ibanez SRC6 bass VI To turn it into a baritone guitar. Installation was straightforward and quick with proper instructions and materials provided. If you are looking for the Tosin Abasi sound these with get you there. The cleans are absolutely gorgeous especially in single coil mod and the two humbucker modes sound really good with any amount of gain. These are… read more an excellent upgrade for your instrument.

Sound incredible, pain to install in a lot of guitars.

These pickups sound absolutely great. Versatile and clear, single coils are some of the best I've ever used, high-gain tones are articulate and cut through. Everything about them is great except the install. These pickups direct mount to your guitar ONLY. Your pickup rings are useless and your favorite Luthier will have a great time routing out space for them in your guitar.… read more But don't let that stop you. You're going to be happy when the work is done.

Dude they sound so d*** good lol

To be fair, I threw these in a Harley Benton R-457MN that I bought for modding, and that thing came with pickups geared more towards swamp metal, or deep sea whale songs. Even given that, these pickups just sound beautiful. They give clarity and definition to any kind of tone, and every voicing/selector option actually sounds good, whereas most pickups' positions tend to be hit… read more or miss. I went with the Tosin's because the Moderns were just slightly off for my liking, something about the mids. I'm 110% satisfied with these pickups in terms of tone and quality, and using the preferred wiring diagrams provided allows for a ridiculous range of tones with the 3 voicings. (NOTE: You will need to seperately buy a 5 way super switch or an Ibanez switch to access the 3rd voicings and wire it as recommended. This was my first time installing guitar electronics and it went fine, so I'd say if you have the confidence, some background info, and a soldering iron, don't be afraid to try out the project for yourself. It takes a couple hours, but the difference in tone on that first plug in is sooo worth the effort)ALSO! I cannot stress enough how satisfied I've been with Sweetwater's service. Ordered on Friday, they arrived Monday morning. How about throwing Josh Sackett a raise?!?!
