We need to talk about the new Rammstein pickups...
Sorry for the delay on this one y'all! Kid started daycare. Good god, I've never been so sick so often lol. Peep all the details on Mick Thomson's new pickups here: bit.ly/49peSyI
Trust me, it doesn’t end until their done! Hopefully everyone stays healthy!
Holy shit you have a kid that’s wild
Hate to say it mate but the illness does not end
Similar situation here. She's been in day care for like a year now and I've been sick every other week since lol
Yereaaah at least you only have 1? Try 1 kid in daycare, one in JK, one in grade 1. That was a fun year 🤢
finally, a demo that doesn't sound fuzzy and awful. Fishman did this set zero justice in their videos
My guy playing collective soul was not on my guitar UA-cam 2024 bingo card lol.
Underrated band. Sick riffs.
Idk if its just me but that demo track was very Rammstein at points haha
Up until recently, I've always left the plastic on everything as long as I could lol. That bit gave me a good chuckle
Okay, Dior needs to make that Fishman Mick Thomson collab happen.
Finally a MOD VIDEO
I love that signature guitar man also the pickups sound wonderful
I watched another UA-camr demo those pickups and damn they sounded massive, same for your demo, they literally sounded like the beginning riff from before I forget and when I mean literally I mean straight off from the song, of course I know their signature pickups but when you can create the same sound from like years ago that’s something special.
Take note of his amp more so than the pickups. You just want to have pickups that produce a clear signal with as little noise as possible. The actual heavy lifting with the tone comes from your amp & cab combo.
Man I'm so glad I'm still in team EMG with the quick connects (and esp after trying EMG X), but kudos for the awesome work (and sound!)
The fact that EMG is the only big brand doing quick connect pots is stupid. I mean, soldering isn't hard, but damn...
@@RyRyTheBassGuySeymour Duncan does is on the Blackouts
I just replaced my Blackouts with emg's yesterday, they are compatible, so it was like a ten minute job 👍🏻
@@Sticky_Tea I know the Blackouts have them on the pickup, but the set I bought still needed the pots soldered (this was quite awhile ago, so not sure if that's changed and what my original comment mentioned).
Any updates on the next run of HB sig models? 👀👀
Second this!
Buy real guitars
@@Ottophil what do you mean “real” guitars, are there fake guitars? What is a fake guitar, let me guess, a guitar that doesn’t have a neck, or maybe 5 strings, most guitars are real guitars
@@Ottophil fairly certain Harley Benton guitars aren’t imaginary-they’re very much real, but thanks for supplying my daily dose of dipshit UA-cam comments 😂
@@Ottophilthis guy 100% only plays 3k+ les Paul’s or some shit lol
Nice ESP USA work bench
My 3 year old just informed me that is her guitar and she's coming to take it from you, so be ready.
You really need to drop your signature HB man!!! Lol. That baby blue with black hardware looks soo sick!!! Love it man!!!
H...
This has got to be the rawest, sikkest, hunka-chugga demo you've EVER created!🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘
This may be the best pickups video ever made.
sorry bro, but im only here for that gorgeous golden retriever you got there!!! please more features!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"We took my dog to the professional dog hair luthier to go for a shorter scale length and to condition the rest of it. Let's compare the before and after on the clean channel"
Less dog. More amps
Definitely a big difference and great showcase of that! Really enjoyed the demo track as well. Cheers
Oooooo momma Agu is going to be pissed about the plastic
asian mother... agu... korean?? agu is a variation of agui or monkfish in korean.
Hey Hunter! I never thought about it until I watched this video, but I suggest that using the pitch shifting changes the tuning of the pickup. If the pitch shift is down 1-1/2 steps, that would be a factor of 0.842. For the bridge Voice-1 spec with a peak frequency of 650Hz, that would get moved down to 547Hz.
It could be a fun experiment to compare the pickups with actual drop-B string tuning against drop-D with the pitch shifting.
Good playing on this demo. I think you did Mick justice 🤘
Dude, that demo was awesome! Just what I needed to listen to while working. Big morale boost. Nice job!!
Great job on such an amazing video and demo of these pickups. You definitely should get a sponsorship with Fishman ,because you did these pickups the justice they deserved. Subscribed.
Im actually about to get these pickups put in my guitar today lol thanks for the demo
Love watching your vids ,I just liked and subscribed
That unboxing had just the right ratio of petting to opening
Before I even watch the video, I put my Mick Thompson’s in an ESP and they blew me away. Every sound you want. The passive neck voice 👌
Dude, you outdid yourself on your track! Daaaaamn, son! Still not a fan of active pickups but those sounded great.
the colour on that harley benton guitar that you used for the pickup demo reminds me of the walls in my grandmothers house. very retro.
I've had these pickups for a little bit now and played a couple shows. The unsung hero to me is voice 2 on the neck. You knew it would be heavy, but the cleans are so responsive and clean.
Surprisingly versatile, and sound great in higher tunings!
I did something similar with the Ibanez RGA421. Got Scottie Lapage Fishmans, and gutted the whole guitar to upgrade all hardware from black to gold. Looks and sounds amazing. Learned a ton too! Good video Aug! 🔥🫡
You wire up the rest of the features?
The EMG solderless kit is so nice.
I just their new input jack and whatever pots I need.
Usually it’s an 81-85 with 1 volume and 1 tone and it makes things incredibly simple.
Killer video! Thank you!
That is one TASTY tune! Nicely done, sir!
Omg i would love to have s matte blue lp style, it looks incredible, can't wait for the next run of HBs
FINALLY LESS GOOOOOOOO.
Thank goodness! I thought this channel was going to become a gear news only channel
That headstock is amazing looking
Love the color of this HB. I would just add some marks on the fretboard to be perfect. I'm lost without them😅
I got ahold of Harley Benton to see if they could make a baritone SC in the aged matte black/gold aaaand I’d have a bucket list guitar marked off. Good stuff here!
That demo track is fkn sick!! 🔥
I have Fishman Moderns in 3 of my guitars and I wire up all the extra features such as the HFT (high frequency tilt) and on the new moderns you can select whixh coil, N/S is active when using the split coil feature (or dont select either and you get a parrallel sound and many more possibilities.
But when theres 13 wires from eaxh pickup, it can be a little overwhelming.
That and so many of the tonal variations cannot be heard well at higher gain.
I noticed a 'Voice 1 Bass Boost' on the bridge for this Mick Thomson set. Tbh this set's sound isn't my kinda vibe but it's cool to see Fishman bringing in even more features. Of course you can use EQs etc. to shape your tone but having a switch on the guitar to do it immediately is more convenient, and doing it at the pickup level should be better for clarity.
I have a guitar with Moderns coming soon, but they are the 2 voice versions. I have a Schecter KM-7 with the Keith Merrow set which are 3 voice but not liking the bridge pickup in that much. So I'm trading that guitar for something else. But I definitely want to wire up the coil split on the new guitar - I have a Cort KX507 that is wired up for coil split on the 2 voice Moderns and I use the coil split a lot.
I've thought of an even more fancy setup for my new guitar though. You can apparently take the raw output of one coil, and feed it into the preamp of another Fluence pickup. This little trick is used in the Abasi set, as he has two very different single coil voices - a Strat inspired sound for the bridge, and Tele for the neck. So for his inner coils position, it routes both through the bridge's preamp.
I seem to prefer the sound of the dedicated singe coil voice 3 for the neck, but the dirtier coil split on the bridge. So I'm thinking of getting a 3 voice Modern for the neck. Then I can route a bridge coil through the neck's preamp when I want say a both inner coils position with voice 3. But I would still have the option to just do a basic coil split on the bridge and get the percussive djenty sound I like.
Love your handle btw, somewhat Monty Python inspired!
Ooooo finally the new Agufish HB are (more or less) back! Please let us know a bit more! 🙏
Aaaaand... no belly cut on them?
Wow, that was 100% Slipknot's sound. Great demo, those pickups have some crazy clarity.
That installation montage song was fucking awesome. Seriously.
If Fishman started using the quick connect system like EMG, I would probably be interested in giving Fishmans a try.
Yeah, they really need a quick connect system. It would have had me put fishmans in two now emg loaded guitars.
Would make switching between ways to connect them even easier as well.
The technology is there, and it's not like they hate progress 😉
@agufish what do you use for drums on your demos? They always sound really great.
These vs the Jim Root EMGs. Personally just from reviews and demos I’d pick these. Truly felt they could do anything I personally would want to do on guitar.
those sound sick. very slipknot. Also the metallica riff sounded really fucking good 🤘🔥
full cocking the subscribe button is gonna be my new favorite phrase for the year
I'd be curious to see a comparison between these and the EMTY pickups he had before
I got that blink182 referance in cleans
Hey man just curious cause I have never done it. Do you have to take the bridge off to change out the controls and pickups or is that just habit or other maintenance happening while you had the guitar apart?
If you did a Fishman signature what would you do differently?
9:52 ive had that problem with the digitech drop too. Does the brightness knob bring back the chug that you lose if you go too low?
That is kinda the dry distortion I have been looking for, I have black winters at the moment, and while they are amazing these seem to be more what I'm looking for, now I only need to get the money 😂😅
Really missing an opportunity to add one more push pull pot for stereo output, which can be done on an active guitar, would be a really nice way to demonstrate the differences between the neck and bridge, also makes recording rhythms really quick, I know because most of my guitars and basses are wired switchable stereo, bass bridge goes to dirty tone, neck is clean bass tone, 1 take, 2 separate tones, completely in sync and no phase issues
Nice music dude. I'd like that on an album. Let's rock some more
I live vicariously through you because I don’t wanna raise a dog in an apartment complex😂
You’re way better at soldering than me lol. My output jack is wrapped and superglued, and I’m surprised that all 5 positions on my guitar work lmao
On the topic of the HB models, does “soon” mean within the decade or within this year? 😅
😂 i think it means YES 😅
15:15 I see what you did there xD
It was a Mexican pirate
I’m so glad somebody else noticed
@@Cereal421 that's right, kids!
I'm a huge fan of Mick's Seymour Duncan set. Personally, I find the regular moderns too harsh sounding, so these would probably be a good fit for me.
I'd be wrapping that battery in some cloth. The metal case for a 9 volt battery can too easily short things out in the cavity for the electronics.
When are we getting signature Agufish fishman?
Dunno whether to do something similar to this and make up my own guitar using separate parts or rather buy a nice schecter 😂. Anyone got any pointers? Awesome video btw!!
Nice mod. I had a set of Moderns ion a 7 string Balaguer Overlord (Grand, Hammer of the Underworld), defiantly agree with sterile. I have some Abasi sigs in my Abasi, (no siht, Sherlock) and they are much better. I still prefer EMG's as far as actives go. But hey Agufish, bro, I'm getting a set of Black Winters in the mail, any chance you can do something with them ? Late to the party as usual, but has there ever been a cooler name for a pick-up ?
MOAR
I got a set of modern fluences, had them all wired up myself and got nothing. Had it done in a shop and they said I just had the connectors upside down 🙃
If he wanted them with a lower output because it works better with overdrives, it's not s stretch to assume he's might be using a boost or OD as an always-on pedal. If he does it would render the inherent problem of a low output pickup moot.
Anything can be a *CHUG* if you’re brave enough!

Have you seen the new ltd m/ec models in blue, purple, and charcoal burst?
wtf that riif is nasty bro🔥🔥
That demo track was straight fuckin 🔥🔥🔥
Who makes the solution you put on your fretboard? I could really use this…
What do you use for drum tracks?
what are you gonna do with the rosweell pup harness? :) asking for a friend
Agufish... it's not only Asian mothers... I can personally attest that hispanic mothers are also big fans of keeping the plastic on as long as possible. 😁
When are you gonna do a review on a EVH SA-126???
P.S.S. that Shine Riff is so fricking SIC!! Plus that Frickin reference has nothing to do with that knob Glen Fricking Fricker😂
have you seen the new squier affinity 6 string basses?
Nice Golden Retriever
I like how tight they are, but the compression is a bit too much for my djenty liking. Actives just don't djent as well as passives.
It’s wild how different they sound to the MKH pickups in my Epi.
0:55 this part is for me.. I was avoiding everything about other pickups than EMGs but my guitar gets a makeover next year to her 15th and I want to switch pick ups for the first time in my life, so its cool to have this little rundown about fishmans
What model guitar 🎸 is that I dig it
dont forget Mick's DV-77 speakers
We need a review of a Seymour Duncan Damocles, plssss!!!
May I make a small request? Can you add some clean channel demonstrations to these types of videos? Some maybe some long-held chords placed after the normal outro? Thanks.
Am I the only that thinks having this dropped by the whammy could absolutely be skewing the sound samples? Like that can’t be the same as if you have the guitar in drop b
Hunter didn't FF used to have quick connect plugs on their pups??
And why doesn't the reverb store for the harley benton brand carry YOUR SIGNATURE GIT BOX??
THAT WOULD BE FRERKIN AWESOME!!!!
Agufishs signature version 2 when?
Way to disappoint mom dude
More puppy content!
I mean....mod content. Yeah, that's what I meant.
hey, maybe change the color of your little red line iof your clip info. minor thing but i confused it for the video runtime everytime. but i also obsessively check how far along in the video i am.
15:15 wait, that’s the Blink-182 song about dogs!
Fishman Mick Thomson pickups -> Bagul signature pickups
Alright, signature pick up = what is their rig and rack setup.
