This test is a side-by-side comparison of the Fishman banjo pickup versus the Gold Tone ABS. I hooked both up to the same banjo and recorded at the same time on a Korg digital recorder. The Fishman in in the right channel and the Gold Tone is in the left. The banjo is an Epiphone MB 250 played with bare fingers (no picks). I used the Gone Tone Pre Amp with the volume and all 3 EQ channels boosted to the max. The Fishman has been installed in this banjo for over a year and had been carefully tweaked to produce a tone that is very close to the original banjo. The wiring in my house produces a hum (you can really hear it on the Fishman) which is not typical of most of the venues we play, so this is a worst case scenario.
