  • Page 6 Fluence Classic Open Core – Connection Points & Functions 1. HFT (High Frequency Tilt) - This feature is for players who prefer a Rev 2.0 darker top end, similar to the effect of using passive pickups loaded by a long instrument cable. To activate, connect the HFT contact pad to ground either wired through a switch or permanently by creating a solder bridge to the GND pad next to it.
  • Page 7 This pin is an electronically controlled switch and has no signal on it. It can share a switch contact with other voice select wires without interaction. Note: the Single Coil / Voice-3 select pin (3) over rides Voice-2 select. Therefore, the Voice-3 pin must be disconnected (not grounded) to allow Voice-2 selection.
  • Page 8 The active coil is selected by a solder bridge connecting the corresponding outer pad to the center one. The pickups ship from the factory with the inner coils (when used as a Bridge/Neck pair) set as the default. To change the active coils to the outer ones, remove the solder bridge and create a new one from the other outer pad to the center.
  • Page 9 6. +9-18V - This is the + dc power input pin. Fluence pickups are designed to have a wide dynamic range running from a 9V supply, however they are 18V compatible for instruments already set up that way. 7. Output - The main output pin has a 2k ohm output impedance and is suitable for driving low impedance volume and tone pots, typically 25k.
