Fishman Fluence Signature Series Mick Thomson 6-String Pickup Straight black nickel front

Straight from Mick Thomson:

My pickups were tuned in a studio and then tested on the road and then tuned a little bit more. The end result being both musical and face melting. Extra attention was given to the low mids to keep it big but tight. Voiced to cut through a mix but never be shrill. Just could not be happier with how they turned out.
