Fishman Rare Earth Mic Blend – Active Soundhole Pickup with Mic (New)
The Fishman Rare Earth Mic Blend is a hybrid active soundhole pickup that combines a flexible cardioid condenser microphone with a neodymium humbucking magnetic pickup. It provides a rich, natural acoustic tone by blending the immediacy and control of the magnetic pickup with the ambient resonance captured by the microphone. The Blend knob allows real-time adjustment between the two signals, and a bass extension / roll-off switch helps tame low-frequency resonances in louder contexts.
No permanent modifications are required: it installs via cork-lined clamp mounts and a pre-wired jack, with optional endpin mounting. Supports guitars with soundhole diameters down to ~ 3 5/8″ (92 mm). Powered by two miniature batteries (LR44 / 357) for approximately 100 hours of use.
