I know they've dropped the powerblend pedal. Now I'm hearing that they are dropping the powerbridges as well. Also----going to quit supplying regular bridges to Anderson and Suhr.

So, anyone know what exactly Fishman is up to?

i did say in an earlier post that they were discontinuing their oem bridge making. they were out sourcing all the metal work, and i think it just wasn't worth it for them. they were getting the pedal from morley, and they were only selling 50-100 per year so again it wasn't worth the trouble for them. they do their oem acoustic stuff in the 10,000 piece quantities, so 100 of anything is not worth it for them.

thanks Tom.

So what have you heard, if anything, about the future of their powerbridges? Don't mean to bug you about this. I can email Fishman for some answers tomorrow.

Powerbridges aren't being made anymore.

Really? That's a bummer.

So what's our alternative? (If there is one)
