Well I wanted to hear the pickups and found myself in a trance. I'm a straight Travis pickin/lap steel blues guy whose never really liked this style that much but, you are exeptional friend. I'm inspired and beyond impressed. I own a mobile recording outfit in LA if you ever do a show in So Cal and need tracking let me know. I'll bring all the good shit.
I’m usually not the biggest fan of the modern tapping. This was absolutely brilliant, though. And to my ears, I prefer the fishman. BUT, it’s close. And not worth the price difference. I have K & K in several instruments and don’t plan to change.
Amazing! Isnt theres any phase issues? I Would to like to combine the rare earth blend with the expression 2, do you think it can work without any problem? Thanks
Yes i think so, although i wuould say, without any EQ - setting, the fishman wins the match, with some EQ - setting, the K&K will shine as well. I also like the bass sound more of the K&K. It sounds more warm and naturally to me. But the Fishman sounds clearer and more transparenzy. btw. My guitar is very, very bright sounding by itself...
I ended up keeping the Fishman Humbucker and added a Baggs Lyric. Both are wired together and go through a stereo cable and split at the amp. Honestly, the Fishman is sufficient but I blend in a little of the Lyric for a more natural sound.
I bought one and it is useless because the pickup is taking all possible noises, EMI, hum, hiss, it is unmanageable. Moreover Fishman, Inc. support told me "You can't do anything with that and I hope we have been helpful". End.
Great playing but I have *NO* idea how these guitar pickups sound when being played. The percussive playing totally overshadowed the sound. It was great playing, of course, but made for a not-helpful demo of the pickups. 99% of people buying pickups aren't going to play that way.
The Fishman sure has more top-end, but I sure don't dislike the mellow character of the K&K either. But Holy Shit, dude, you've got the chops! :)
Absolutly... very good description. Many thanks:)
Came here for the demo and stayed for the INSANE playing! That was beautiful man!
Wow! Thank you
5 years late, but damn what a good video. Thanks!
goddaaammmmmmm when both the pickups come in together for the 2nd song I was floored
sounded huge and warm and all encompassing
loved it
Came for the pickup comparison... Stayed for the remarkable playing. Subscribed!
Wow! Many thanks:-)
Both together sound so good!
A great demo & great playing , K&K sounds darker to my ears but both are great 👍🏻
Wow.. great playing, no superpower demonstration of sound options by mix and match the sources.. Thanks for great show and inspiration. :-)
AWSOME!!❤
Dude.... That was awesome.

:-) many thanks
Heh heh…need both,I guess. POOH! What a sound! Hey…your playing…TOPS!!
Dude that was like the most inspiring acoustic playing I've ever heard...wow

Dont care much about Fishman or K&K. But brother, you sure can play! It sounds so good!
many thanks :-)
respect!
Many thanks :-)
mega gut!
I don’t like this tapping style at all ..
Well, I didn’t like it,
But I do now ..
Great playing!
And your timing is excellent!
Many thanks:-)

Many thanks 🙂 I think it will work. 2 Separate signals shouldn`t actually be a problem...
Beautifully played! What tuning are you using on the second tune? Partial (dadgad) capo on standard tuning?
Many thanks:)
Tuning is DADGBE. But i used a special Capo... on the second fret only for the Strings DGB.
Greetings Edo
If I was that good of a player, I would get two pick ups installed in my acoustic guitar, too!
Hey Edo! Great playing, thanks for the video.
How do you mix both signals? Do you have two endpins?
Best
Giovanni
Many thanks Giovanni:-)
yes exactly, there are two endpins.
Best wishes
Edo
Do you play through an amp or pc + monitors?
Mac + Monitors
What was the name of the first song? Loved it!
oh many thanks :-)
Actually I never finished this Tune. It was just an Idea.
Man that was amazing. What tuning do you play in at 1:30?
Amazing playing! What is the make of your guitar please? Thank you!
How good is this sound 3:49
Do you think you can achieve a similar brighter sound like the fishman with a EQ on the k&k?
Yes i think so,
although i wuould say, without any EQ - setting, the fishman wins the match,
with some EQ - setting, the K&K will shine as well.
I also like the bass sound more of the K&K. It sounds more warm and naturally to me.
But the Fishman sounds clearer and more transparenzy.
btw. My guitar is very, very bright sounding by itself...
Thanks for your answer man! You are amazing player! Cheers from Cozumel Mexico!
oh many thanks ! muchas gracias:-)
i like your music very much as well. You are great player and awsome singer.
cheers from Germany
I don't hear a noticable difference. At least not a $200 difference. I may swap out the Fishman on my Larrivee for a K&K and sell the Fishman....

K and k sounds more natural to my ears
