Fishman Matrix Infinity Narrow Active Acoustic Guitar Pickup & Preamp System

Gearank Recommendation

The Fishman Matrix Infinity Narrow appeared on our recommended list for Acoustic Guitar Pickups from October 2017 until September 2021 when it was removed due to a lack of availability.

Overview

Fishman is the premier name in acoustic guitar amplification and the Matrix is Fishman’s flagship series.

It features a redesigned endpin mounted preamp, controls for volume and tone, a low-battery indicator, and a voicing switch.

The voicing switch cuts specific frequencies to approximate the electric signal with your acoustic's tone.

The onboard EQ has a custom range from mid boost to more scooped tones.

If you prefer the detail and attack of piezo systems, The Matrix Infinity series might be worth a shot.
