Default Fishman Artist coming soon….

To go with my Fishman Matrix Infinity pickup in the Takamine F 340, should sound great.

That sounds like a great setup. I used a Fishman Loudbox Mini for 6 years, and just loved it. Using a 330x now - they make excellent stuff!

I'll be playing at the local senior center, the Mini would be too small for the room and the Performer would be too big, the Artist is just right for my needs. Another band member uses an Artist and I thought it sounded really good. Plus at 25 lbs, it'll be easy to carry in and out.

I listened to a few demo's of the Artist, I thought it sounded plenty good enough for my needs.

Good choice. Mine's 7 years old and continues to serve me well.

I have all of the Loudbox amps and the Artist is the most versatile or all of them. I am actually considering selling my Performer because the Artist does covers just about everything it can do. I have other systems I can use if I need the Performer's power.

Got the Artist amp today....it was used but in excellent shape, a little Armourall cleaned it up and made it look like new again....sounds really good once it's dialed in right....about half the size of my Fender SFX amp. Not a bad deal at all, saved a couple hundred off the price of a new one.

The Artist is, in my opinion, the best of the range. Well chosen. Enjoy!
