The 10.5mm string spacing makes picking across strings effortless, while the snap-in construction allows easy loading of a tremolo arm.
Fishman Fluence Tim Henson Signature Series Pickups
At the heart of the TOD10's versatility are the Fishman Fluence Tim Henson Signature Series pickups. These pickups provide three distinct voicings that cater to Henson's diverse tonal needs, from aggressive leads and rhythm tones to the cleanest single-coil sounds and even acoustic-like textures.
Neck Pickup Voicings:
- Voice 1: Thick and smooth humbucker tone for rich, full-bodied sound.
- Voice 2: Hyper-clean tone that mimics the clarity of nylon string acoustics.
- Voice 3: Fluid single-coil sound, perfect for intricate melodic lines.
Bridge Pickup Voicings:
- Voice 1: A hot-rodded classic voice ideal for lead guitar work.
- Voice 2: A unique combination inspired by Tim's favourite bridge humbuckers.
- Voice 3: Single-coil tones that pair beautifully with the neck coil for rich, harmonic interplay.
Innovative Pickup Switching System
The TOD10 features a five-way pickup selector switch located near the lower body cutout, allowing players to access various pickup combinations effortlessly. The tone knob also functions as a push/pull switch to engage the Fishman Fluence Voicing options. When pushed in, it activates Voice 1 and Voice 3 across the pickups; when pulled out, it engages Voice 2 and Voice 3. This versatile switching system enables a seamless transition between different tonal textures, making the TOD10 a highly adaptable guitar for any musical genre.
Additional Features
- Luminescent Side Dots: For added convenience, especially during live performances on dark stages, the TOD10 is equipped with luminescent side dot markers that make it easy to see fret positions.
- Graph Tech Nut: This high-quality nut contributes to the guitar’s tuning stability and smooth string movement, which is essential for expressive playing.
