EMG ZW-Set Zakk Wylde

Der Einbau ist wegen der Steckverbindungen ein Kinderspiel. Auch die Anleitung ist sehr hilfreich.

Da sich an EMG die Geister scheiden, muss den Sound jeder selbst beurteilen. Ich finde, dass meine Dean Z79 deutlich besser klingt, als vorher. Brillante Höhen, Druck von unten, wenn man die Mitten am Verstärker etwas anhebt, hat man einen tollen Sound. Selbst clean klingt der 85er sehr sauber und auch der 81er ist zumindest brauchbar für etwas Gezupfe.

Ganz bestimmt nicht mein letztes EMG-Set!

Well im a Rammstein big big fan, if you really want to get that metal brightness and juicy, this is it.
They are wonderful, you can put them on any guitar and have a fantastic sound .
My Ibanez RG320 Mol now sounds like a pro ESP metal guitar.

Great set!! I have installed it in my Schecter She Devil and.... now its sounds great!!! Very big difference with past pickups (Duncan Designed Active HB-105).
Legendary pickups!
Easy to install.
Great sound!
Long Live Heavy Metal!

Installed this set in to a Gibson Les Paul tribute and they're excellent.

The quick connect system is an absolute breeze, it makes install effortless. I do not recommend EMG switches because I've had two now and both failed in a matter of days. The quick connect system also makes it super easy to swap out the pickups. I tried a 60 in the neck and that was too thin and weak. I also tried the FAT 55 set and although OK it had some boominess in the mid range and a weird sizzle on the bridge pickup.

EMG pickups are really one trick ponies and I think this set is the best. You've got the chuggy 81 in the bridge and the thick and syrupy 85 in the neck. The other cool thing is that they do cleans really well, completely different to a passive pickup. The cleans are super clean and chimey.

If you're considering actives this is the set to go for.
