John, Fishman's are generally voiced for acoustics with piezo (microphone) pickups. A "floater" is magnetic. You may want to try different amplification, just to test the differences.

For "straight ahead" jazz, most people use a pure transistor...something like a Mini Brute Polytone, or the JazzKat line I use.


My FatKat JazzKat has a switchable tube pre-amp, so you have the flexibility of sounding like blues guys or hard rockers want to sound (tubes), or something more like traditional jazz
( Herb Ellis, Johnnie Smith, etc.) A George Benson sound would add a little tube.

Fun Stuff! Fishmans are great for acoustic but not many people use them for magnetic pick-ups. I use a Fender Acoustasonic for my piezo nylon and steel strings.

Email me anytime to talk guitars and amps....I'm "eaten up" with them!
