This guitar isn't just made to play well, the tones it creates sounds just as good. The S671ALB is loaded with a trio of Fishman Fluence Modern pickups in an HSH configuration. They offer a mix of high gain tones that range from well-behaved to unrelenting savagery.

Unlike their wire-wound brethren, Fluence pickups manage to serve up a massive tone arsenal without noise or inductance issues. On top of that, Fishman Fluence Modern pickups provide you with your choice of two distinctly different voices for each pickup. You can switch between smooth and civilized to ruthless power simply by operating the push-pull pot.
