Floating Pickup - Neck Mounted
Designed to be attached to the end of the fingerboard (56mm wide) using small screws. This style of pickup was pioneered by Gibson on their Johnny Smith model. The pickup is the style used on Epiphones of the era and later in the Les Paul DeLuxe and gives a warm, rounded tone in the neck position. 7.8K Ohms DC resistance. For vintage freaks, it is not the same as the original Johnny Smith pickups which did not have adjustable polepieces - merely a piece of tortoiseshell plastic underneath the holes.

Fishman Archtop Guitar Pickup
Dual vibration-sensing piezo elements embedded in an adjustable ebony bridge give this pickup an unmistakable acoustic ambience, a la Freddie Green. An impedance matching preamp (see Preamps) is recommended, but not required.
Professional installation is recommended.
