Description
The Dallas, TX-based instrumental outfit has just re-released their debut full-length, Muse, on Equal Vision Records. The album was originally self-released as an independent artist and is now available as a re-mastered, re-packaged release through the label. The new and improved release also makes Muse available at physical retail locations for the first time. Muse was produced by Nick Sampson [Of Mice & Men, Asking Alexandria] and is also available streaming in full at Polyphia.merchnow.com. Upon its initial release last September, the full-length self-titled landed on several Billboard Charts including: No. 5 on Internet Albums, No. 6 on Hard Rock Albums, No. 13 on Independen Albums, No. 22 on Top Rock Albums, No. 71 on Top Current Albums, and No. 76 on Top 200. "Obviously we wanted to write something extremely unique," says guitarist Tim Henson, "but we also wanted it to be accessible in a way that would unite people of different tastes... An album that literally everyone could appreciate." The record contains a variety of material from the euphoric intensity of "87" to the emotional roller coaster "Finale", and also boasts an insane roster of guest artists including Aaron Marshall of Intervals, Canadian solo guitarist Nick Johnston, Jason Richardson of Chelsea Grin, Jakub Zytecki of Disperse, Nick Sampson of I Am Abomination, and Mario Camarena and Erick Hansel of CHON.

SWITCHING SYSTEM
When the Fishman Fluence Voicing switch is set to Voice 1 and the pickup selector is in the neck position, the full neck humbucker is activated. When the middle position is selected, both full humbuckers are activated. Selecting the bridge position activates the full rear humbucker. When the Fishman Fluence Voicing switch is set to Voice 2, the pickup layout is the same as Voice 1, with both pickups in Clear, airy chime mode and Classic Hot Rod mode respectively. When the Fishman Fluence Voicing switch is in Voice 3 and the pickup selector is in the neck position, only the inner coil of the neck pickup is activated. When the middle position is selected, only the inner coils of both pickups are activated. When the bridge position is selected, only the inner coil of the rear pickup is activated.
CONTROLS
With the guitar held in the playing position, there is a three-way pickup selector switch near the knee cutout on lower part of the body. Above it are three controls. The control closest to the neck is the volume knob, the Fishman Fluence Voicing switch is in the middle, and the control closest to the end of the body is the tone knob. The Fishman Fluence Voicing switch changes the overall tone of the pickups: Voice 1 is engaged when the switch is in the the bridge position, Voice 2 is engaged when the switch is is in the neck position, and Voice 3 is engaged when the switch is in the middle position. When the Fishman Fluence Voicing switch set to Voice 1, both pickups are in Vintage PAF mode; in Voice 2, the neck pickup is in Clear, airy chime mode, and the bridge pickup is in Classic Hot Rod mode. In Voice 3, the neck pickup is in Clear, Vintage Single Coil mode, and the bridge pickup is in Slightly Overwound Single coil mode.
