Why Fishman?
Fishman has been synonymous with the best in acoustic amplification for over 25 years.
Fishman found early success as the premier maker of OEM acoustic pickups and preamps for
Martin, Gibson, Fender, Guild, and many more. Today, Fishman is the choice of professionals
in all styles, and provides everything a performer needs: Pickups, Preamps, Tone Shaping
pedals, and Acoustic Amplifiers. In arenas, studios, and living rooms, or wherever you find
amplified acoustic instruments, you can bet you’ll hear Fishman!
What is the SA220 Solo Performance System?
It’s a P.A… and an Amp. 220 watts of clean, lightweight, power drives a line array of six
custom made high-excursion speakers and a soft dome tweeter. This unique combination
delivers full sound, ultra-wide dispersion, and deeper sonic penetration than the common
speaker cabinet. Plus, the enhanced bass response of the SA220’s custom-designed speakers
means there’s no need for a subwoofer.
Who Is The Customer?
Designed for the singer/songwriter, the SA220 Solo Performance System provides excep-
tional sound quality and coverage in a wide variety of venues. The SA220 is also a great
choice for worship leaders, public speakers, and anyone in need of a portable, powerful
sound system.
