Detail 01
Spider style
It fits the spider-bridge resonator design. Biscuit-cone and tricone instruments use a different bridge and need a different pickup.

FishmanNashville Series Spider Style Maple Resophonic Pickup
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A pickup for spider-bridge resonator guitars. For players who need a resonator to hold its own through an amp or PA.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bluegrass and country players amplifying a square-neck resonator
- Resonator players competing with a full band on stage
- Anyone whose mic keeps feeding back on loud stages
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Biscuit-cone or tricone resonators — the bridge style is different
- Standard flat-top acoustics; a soundhole pickup fits those
- Players recording alone in a quiet room with a good mic
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Maple
The bridge material the pickup is built into, so it replaces the part rather than clamping onto it.
Detail 03
Resophonic-specific
Sized for the cone and bridge assembly of a resonator. It is not a general acoustic guitar pickup.
Detail 04
Fishman Nashville Series
Fishman's line aimed at country and bluegrass instruments, where the job is cutting through a live band.
Detail 05
$249.95
A component swap in the instrument's bridge, priced above clip-on options that leave the cone alone.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your resonator uses a spider bridge, not a biscuit cone
- 02Swapping the bridge changes setup — expect to reset action and intonation
- 03No cable, preamp or amp included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will it fit a biscuit-cone resonator?
No. This is for spider-bridge instruments. A biscuit-cone or tricone resonator needs a pickup made for that bridge.
02Can I install it myself?
It replaces part of the bridge assembly, so the cone comes out and setup changes. A tech is the safer route if you have not done it.
03Will it change my acoustic tone?
You are replacing a bridge component on the cone, so the unplugged voice can shift. Plan the install with that in mind.
04Do I still need a preamp?
You need something to plug into — an amp, DI or preamp. The pickup only generates the signal.
