  Hi together
  I have a new pickup system built into my Alvarez and of course immediately tried.
  It is the Fishman AG094.
  I took a lot of EP271 from the track; it’s really just a sound test.
  I hope you like it a bit.

  Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.

  A creative piece and very nicely played Wilfried, sounded like your new Fishman is well suited to your Alvarez. Did you have some Reverb running there?

  Thanks Richard, yes I had some reverb set. The Fishman is really great for the little guitar. The original pickup was awful. Normally I use a microphone anyway, but it bothered me to have equipment in the guitar that does not work.

  That is a nice creative recording Wilfried! Your guitar sounds great with the new pickup and your finger style playing is wonderful! Thanks for sharing.

  I’ve heard nothing but good things about those pickups. Based on your recording, I would have to agree. It has a very deep rich sound.

  Nicely done Wilfried, with beautiful photography…very pretty.
  My Alvarez MP70 came with a passive pickup in the bridge and I don’t like it either. It’s really quiet. I like how your new Fishman sounds. I’ll have to look into that.
  Thanks!

  Very sweet sound, Wilf! And playing as well, really perfect!
  Did you bought it from Thomann, and did you use the preamp too. I have couple of guitars without any pick-up system and I’m thinking about magnetic pic-up. I don’t need it anyway, but it’s just nice to improve your gear to perfection.
  Lights.

  Hi Meelis, jepp..from Thomann from 163,- down to 103,- Euro reduced. It is also great that you do not need a 9 volt block as a battery. I am also very satisfied with the sound reproduction. Yes, the recording was on my mixer. A preamplifier is recommended, but it should not be necessary.

  Sorry may late replay!
  
  Ale, if you speak the blues and you like it, I’m glad. As I wrote, it was just a sound test. I have tried other sound settings in the meantime; The pickup is really good to use and it’s fun. Anyway, thank you for your assessment!
  
  Hi Don, thank you for your opinion. I am glad that you like it.
  Somehow, I’ve been waiting for a long time for a submission from you. I have your unmistakable blues in my ear very well. He reminds me of a base of new ideas!
  
  Thanks to both of you

  Hi Wifried, I have just listened to your posting again, this time with a really ‘good’ pair of Sony Headphones. The sound quality you’ve achieved is nothing short of superb and your choice of a Fishman pick-up for your Alvarez was ‘inspirational’ Congratulations ……

  Thanks Weine, Dave and Richard!
  Yes Richard, I always hear my recoding on my headphones to judge the sound; even if I record with a microphone. There are significant differences very clearly. Thank you for listening again.
