This is a genuine Fishman BP100. I bought it used and kept it for research purposes. One of the original clips was missing, so one is a copy I made. Also, the ground wire was cut, so I repaired it with thin copper wire. It produces sound normally. There are tape marks on the surface of one of the two elements, but I left them as is because trying to remove them would damage the black paint and the aluminum-like coating vapor-deposited on the positive electrode side ceramic. I don't feel any particular problems with attaching the clips. Strictly speaking, it might affect the tone, but the original design, which uses felt clips to hold and press down, seems to have a greater impact. The jack, the metal fittings for attaching to the strings, etc., are in good condition. Recommended for those who want to lightly blend it with a Realist-type pickup, etc.
