Frequently Asked Questions
The Fishman system is quite respectable, offering a clear, natural amplified tone, though it won't match the nuance of higher-end acoustic-electric systems.
It's a slightly flatter profile, offering a bit more room for your thumb – many find it more comfortable for longer playing sessions, but it's a personal preference.
The sustain is still respectable, but you’ll notice a slight reduction compared to a non-chambered model, which is typical for this type of construction.
