The Devin Townsend pickups have crazy versatility too. Classic EMG sound, beautiful tele-y tone, and a PAFish sound. Henson’s classic HB voice 1 really nails it in comparison to the Transcendence voice 3 but Townsend’s 81ish vibe+kiiiilllller passive SC tone in one pickup is wildly impressive to me. Different pus, different focuses, different construction. Not sure about these Hensons but I know Townsend’s have a blade and polepieces and a degaussed magnet for the more PAFy sound.

Not gonna lie, the Tim Henson neck pickup just sounds like a DiMarzio PAF Pro in voicing 1 and 3. Voicing 2 sounds like a PAF Pro with a capacitor to roll off some of the top end. Great sound but can be had in a much cheaper pickup.

TLDR; yes, but pickups that are engendered differently sound fundamentally diffrent (ie: humbucker/piazo ect.) and having one that can switch between all three main styles is awesome and something that should be more popular. For massive differences in sound quality speaker swapping is the way to go but it dosent mean much if the pickups in your guitar don’t have enough clarity (especially when playing chords) to make the speaker sound as good as it should, and having a pickup that can go between H - S DOES have a big tone difference, same if your taking about piazo pickup tones. When it comes to swapping diff hum-buckers and or diff single coils with a pickup of the same configuration, that’s when you barely get much of a difference. So I do agree, but I think that having a pickup that can alter its sound fundamentally so it can present tonal quality’s from pups that are engendered differently is pretty game changing indeed. Imo i don’t really like them very much, but I think the new voicing options are really cool

I think if you loaded them on a super strat with a gotoh style trem, itd probably sound a lil different, but very cool hearing them in a LP body with a 3-way!!
Nice!
The Devin Townsend pickups have crazy versatility too. Classic EMG sound, beautiful tele-y tone, and a PAFish sound. Henson’s classic HB voice 1 really nails it in comparison to the Transcendence voice 3 but Townsend’s 81ish vibe+kiiiilllller passive SC tone in one pickup is wildly impressive to me. Different pus, different focuses, different construction. Not sure about these Hensons but I know Townsend’s have a blade and polepieces and a degaussed magnet for the more PAFy sound.
Not gonna lie, the Tim Henson neck pickup just sounds like a DiMarzio PAF Pro in voicing 1 and 3. Voicing 2 sounds like a PAF Pro with a capacitor to roll off some of the top end. Great sound but can be had in a much cheaper pickup.
The nylon string voicing is a cool idea but I just don’t hear it. Doesn’t replace a piezo IMO.
Loved the demo track! Pickups sound killer I think 👌
Love the look of that white signature Harley Benton. Looking forward to them eventually coming out.
FIRST LETS GO
I think I like the Will Addler or the Classic better than these pickups. But that's just my opinion. The real issue is . . . WHEN IS YOUR HB SIGNATURE DROPPING??? lol I can't wait to get my hands on one.

The Adlers are still my absolute favorite of all time, nothing beats them on chug but gotta admit Henson’s set is super versatile. And I dunnooooo man, HB keeps dragging their feet it’s stupid annoying. I THINK they’re in production but honestly not sure 🙃🙃
Freakin awesome 😊
I have these pups in a Jackson I modded. The Nylon sound can be more pronounced with a heavy compression pedal in front of a clean amp. Add a little clean boost in front as well and it's pretty similar to what they market. Pups are great though. One of my favorite Fishman sets to date
Hey Hunter! Is the high-gain voicing (1) good enough for the chugga-chugga we love? Or should I forget about this pickup for really heavy chugging? I like the versatility but I really need the chugging. Your high-gain sounds were great but still sliiightly mushy, or is it my impression?
Interesting pickups, I’m still loving Dimarzio PAFs though 🤣 did you ever finish that melody maker project with the evertune bridge?
Try the "nylon" voicing with the acoustic/piezo amp in NDSP Petrucci and you can really hear it. Doesn't really sound like a piezo, but gets a lot closer than any other magnetic pickup I know of...
That's not even close to how nylon or piezo sound. I'm better off with 2 split humbuckers together in the middle position with an EQ pedal for that tone. If you really want that full range tone you should look up Cycfi Research pickups - they sound bright like a steel string acoustic piezo (not nylon). Loved the demo and the tones otherwise and the pickups themselves do sound great. :)
My pickups from Jim Wagner Pickups (Formerly WCR Pickups) crush! Jim Wagner is a guy a lot of the big players come to for pickups. He used to re-wind pickups for big artists. I know a few super big A-List players who use his pickups with other stickers on them to protect their endorsement deals.
I have that nylon Tim Henson TOD guitar, and I really can’t imagine them being able to make pick ups that can sound like this guitar with nylon strings. It’s close. But those strings have a really distinctive sound that I gotta imagine is hard to replicate. The Tim Henson pickups voiced to sound like nylon, actually sounds exactly like my piezo does on my JazzMaster Acoustasonic. That’s a lot what that pick up sounded like.
Bro not going to lie, that demo gave off some massive Skidrow & Scale the Summit vibes 🤘🔥🔥🤘
Not a big fan of Polyphia, though I very much respect their musical talents... The pickups, however seem quite pleasant and offering a high level of versatility. Or perhaps it's your epic style of playing in this demo. Great skills man... Well done indeed! Blessings to you and your family, - Trey🙏✨🌞
Hunter, you’ve become a monster in installing Fluence pickups 🤘🏻🔥
DiMarrizo Pandamonium pick ups were the cream of the crop to my ears.
Please, when will your HB sig be available?? I can’t wait any longeeeeerrr 😢😂
The Stephen Carpenter middle pickup was also modeled after a piezo
Yeah I want your signature guitar. Thats what I want.
The nylon voice just sounds like a single coil split with a slight db boost or low end boost
Bro takes the glasses off and becomes a BEAST! 😂😂😂
Wow more curious on your signature HB then the pickups
I have an 1984 Kramer focus 1000. I have a spot for one humbucker so what active fishman would you choose. Thanks
Scott’s set isn’t just a classic set with a different aesthetic. He goes over it in an interview
I remeber you had to send the guitar to ken lol good times good times 😊
Hey bud, Will you Plz get a set of Seymour Duncan "Zepyhr" pickup's? These super special order pickups are hand wound with pure silver wire. Please make this a 30 min. video... P.S. If I won the lottery I would have Black Winter pickups with silver wire...
"Ooga Booga Chug Sh*t" That's F*cking awesome😂😂😂😂
Would be crazy if someone put one tim henson pickup in and another Fishman fluence In cause it would be dope to mix two completely random Fishman pickups
@agufish I know its been done on YT a million times. But I need a guitar clenaing tutorial with your specific brand of guitar nerdiness. Thanks :)
Man! I need that HB model of yours! It is THE guitar 🤍
What the hell is your pedal /amp setup? This is the EXACT tone I've been chasing for 30 years.
killer demo track! 👍 Pickups sound good too
How do you switch the modes? Are the knobs push pull?
If I'm playing stuff like Caligulas Horse, Opeth, Karnivool, A Perfect Circle, would you recommend these over the moderns/Abasi's?
Didn’t realize you went for pickup rings on your sig. I’d have pegged you for direct mounts
hope for at least one lefty version of your signature, they are awesome
I would have like to seen an A/B comparison of your pickups vs the polyphia pickup. I doubt there would have been very little difference. Tone is always in the speaker.

Okay, Glenn.
Nylon my butt, it sounds nothing like a nylon string guitar. It's probably just the humbucker in parallel and marketed this way to sell units to whoever falls for it.
What all comes in the box? New pots? I'm getting a mulit scale 7 string from Ormsby and they said these pickups wouldn't work. I'll pay my luther for passive to active work done.
That was super interesting
I thought they sounded amazing. Gonna have to pick up a set But I agree you expect a little more flash from Tim. But for me, it comes down to sound over beauty .
When is your Harley Benton signature guitars be available for purchase. I'm wanting to get the sand blasted purple one!!
I love polyphia, but I will never understand the appeal to Fishmans. They just sound like generic active pickups and generic passive pickups to me. It's cool that you can have both I guess, but I think passive pickups with a gain boost is the best option. Also, that nylon setting sounds nothing like a nylon, or piezo for that matter. Maybe through Tim Hensons pulgin, these sound amazing, but I think I'll stick to my passive emgs. The hz line of pickups have to be my favorites by far. Love your videos, but I don't understand how these are game changing
How do you switch between the different voice settings in each pickup?
ill hold to the fact that the only different Fishamns are the KSE set
How long till we get these in 7 and 8 as those are sick af ❤
how do you ge tthe other voicings, without any kind of switch nob am i stupid like his guitar has?

Let's get a little bit technical here. Does anyone actually know what makes "high end" copper wound poles attached to a magnet different from other copper wound poles attached to a magnet?. I am a believer that all of this is placebo...

For shits and giggles I put, Fishman Fluence Killswitch Engage pickups in my very underrated Ibanez AS73, and now it sounds way better, than a $8.000 freezer burnt Gibson Custom 1959 ES-355 Reissue! (It sounded better before and after the installment anyway. LMAO) Awesome Vids Bro!🤘
Direct Mount. Pickup ? or not sir
Agufish when Is your signature Harley Benton coming out?
are polyphia really that original? they always seemed like a pop version of stuff like chon. Doesn't sound anything like a nylon string to me. Maybe better than a piezo though?
Impressive pickups!..no doubt sir.
I seriously hate the pickups in my SG Prophecy, I got a pair of pearly gates to replace them, active pickups are junk to me, P90s or humbuckers are for me.
Too much time since we have news of your signature.
It always blows my mind that Hunter uses 9s
At this point I’m so over signature pickups. I’ve tried and heard so many different pickups and at the end of the day, they don’t really do much more than standard-production pickups.
The voice 2 only gets a “Meh” from me. I’m a bigger fan of the Devin Townsend signature set TBH.

Not sure what's up with all the dislikes. Here's a like for ya. Cool demo :P
Timi Hendrix 🥵🥵
Gotta be honest they sound pretty damn good. A nice chug underneath with excellent clarity sill available.
I'm not hating, but from your demo, I don't think they are game changers or much special tbh. They sound nice, but that's abou it!
Hunter! Watching you use that big @ss drill was horrifying! Please get a manual Ream! You can increase the diameter of any control hole gradually and wont risk splitting the wood out on the other side.

They definitely don't sound too cool to me unless Tim's style of music is played with them. Which makes me think they're just a "one trick pony' set of pickups and aren't as versatile as I'd originally thought.
You want to change your sound change the speaker of your amp not your pickups.

TLDR; yes, but pickups that are engendered differently sound fundamentally diffrent (ie: humbucker/piazo ect.) and having one that can switch between all three main styles is awesome and something that should be more popular. For massive differences in sound quality speaker swapping is the way to go but it dosent mean much if the pickups in your guitar don’t have enough clarity (especially when playing chords) to make the speaker sound as good as it should, and having a pickup that can go between H - S DOES have a big tone difference, same if your taking about piazo pickup tones. When it comes to swapping diff hum-buckers and or diff single coils with a pickup of the same configuration, that’s when you barely get much of a difference. So I do agree, but I think that having a pickup that can alter its sound fundamentally so it can present tonal quality’s from pups that are engendered differently is pretty game changing indeed. Imo i don’t really like them very much, but I think the new voicing options are really cool
