Fishman Resophonic Amplification demo from Peghead Nation

Fishman is one of the pioneers of acoustic amplification and has offered solutions for resophonic guitars for years. Its most advanced package for dobro-style guitars with spider bridges is the combination of Fishman’s Nashville Series Spider-Style Resophonic pickup and the Jerry Douglas Signature Series Aura Imaging pedal. In this video, Peghead Nation dobro instructor Mike Witcher demonstrates this setup, installed in a Beard Jerry Douglas signature model resonator guitar, and run through a Fishman Loudbox Mini amplifier.

Thanks Mike nice to see you sharing your craft with us . I met you in Auburn in Aussie a few years ago on your trip down under.

So Beautiful....no words...

[@gstrummer]

Beautiful playing. Well done, Mike Witcher.

[@jackleyton5504]

Great playing. Just wonderful.

[@MrChessgator]

Thank you!

[@DENIEL381]

EXCELLENT INFO NICE JOB MIKE.

[@IgnacioBPolanco]

That,s beautiful! and your explanation is crystal clear! thanks for sharing!! by the way, the melody you play is sweet and tender. I am going to try and learn how to play it!! sometimes the most simple licks are as beautiful as the most complicated ones!! The way you play this tune is the best demonstration of what I am saying!! and if possible, could you be so kind to explain to me the differences between the Aura Pedal (Jerry Douglas signature) and this other Aura (Spectrum DI)? the last one is about 100 euros cheaper.

Fishman Aura pickups and pedals are the best for acoustic guitar!

[@allatoona2023]

Good info. Thanks. That song at the end was beautiful - has that sad Irish sound.
Is that Tom Wait’s song Pony’?

[@psscjs]

Is that a bit of rubber tubing under the strings behind the bridge? If so, does that help with feedback? Fabulous playing BTW.

[@hamomine1]

Thanks Mike great video, really appreciate the way you explain things. Shout out from RG academy and the ear training class! By Baggs DI do you mean the “Venue” model by chance??

[@MichaelHarrington17]

Beautiful sound. I have a Pogreba biscuit resonator with an awesome acoustic sound that I'd like to capture as close as possible. Been considering both the Nashville and Classic series to play through my Loudbox mini. I suppose the Nashville is going to sound a bit richer? Naturally the Aura pedal makes a big difference.

[@deniscassiere]

hi, thank you for the very cool presentation. Can I ask you why do you go into a DI and why specifically into a LR Baggs one? Thank you.

[@pegheadnation]

Hi Dennis - The DI Mike is going through is the Fishman Aura Jerry Douglas pedal, which in this case serves just as a processor, rather than a DI, as we just used standard 1/4-inch guitar cables, rather than XLR cables in this demo.

[@deniscassiere]

@@pegheadnation Thank you for your quick and kind reply. So if understand well, any DI would do?

[@Cmack6025]

What song/s are you playing? Beautiful

[@studmuffin1212]

Good to hear the pickups were designed to use with the aura pedal, because on their own they sound like crap.

[@billsmart2532]

This demo INSTANTLY moves over to shilling the pedal. His preferred sound is not at all the raw mic sound I prefer…
