FISHMAN RARE EARTH

Unread post by MahlerGrooves » Tue Mar 22, 2005 12:27 am

A friend of mine just sold me his Taylor 410 LTD (I will return the 110 I have), and I want to put a pickup in it.

I was looking at the Rare Earth Fishman, but I do not know if the cord extendingfrom the pickup will interfere with my playing. Does anyone have any pics of their setup using this style pickup so I can see where the cord lies?

Also, any descriptions of this pickup and the quality would be appreciated.
