    That discrepancy between the outputs of the neck and bridge on a Tele aides that squawky spanky middle position. Plus, the real reason (I think, could be wrong) but it’s that way because of the amount the string vibrates over the neck compared to the bridge.

    I can see why Les Paul would not allow them to put his name to it, the neck set angle is all wrong, which throws the bridge height to high to give the right string height and the tail piece is too close the bridge. You think after all the years that the sg has been made, Gibson would of resolved and perfected the design. The act of shifting the tail piece further away from bridge would help with nose dive issue. Other than that they sound great.

These pickups are better than I hoped for honestly they’re so good. They’re now in my Chapman ML1 Pro now and still sounding amazing

  • @andrewdenine1685

    Active emgs are synonymous for metal tones but that's the humbuckers not the single coil sa emgs. They can handle enough distortion for metal epically since their practicly noiseless no need for a gate with any of the active pickups . Playing srv with emg sa's yes you can get by but their not my pick for blues. If you lower them alot it works better for srv when playing through a tube amp like a 6l6 powered amp I find they drive the amp lots but not in a good way you'll have to use that eq in a totally different way . Even my ts9 tube screamer reacts very different with these in my strat . I've got a old ass set of emg sa golds from the late 70s with the oak backs I love them but they put out a really hot signal which is great for rock and amazing for country tones . If your after srv sounds go with a set of tex mex or I find the set of deluxe dive pickups I have do a great srv and any kind of rock really well

    • @jamesmcdonaldmusic1783
      @jamesmcdonaldmusic1783 Год назад

      Thanks for your comment!! Yeah the single coil EMGs are pretty rare I think I’ve not seen many people use them and they were a little difficult to get a hold of but man they sound so sweet. I find using my line 6 helix floor now I can get any kind of tone out of them but they do all have a certain sound that I associate with active pickups. I know rabea is working on a set of new signature strat pickups with Bareknuckle pickups so I’m thinking that I’ll be selling the EMGs and getting a set of those

    im struggling between getting this set vs the flat 52's...as far as im concerned the main difference is output. something about the 5k neck output paired with 7k bridge output on the 52's scare me but i prefer how the neck on the 52's are more "open". really struggling here

    • @jamesmcdonaldmusic1783
      @jamesmcdonaldmusic1783 2 года назад

      Hey thanks for the comment! the output shouldn't really be an issue. the neck also should be a couple K less than the neck in my opinion because of its position and the neck tones you want. you can also position it closer to the strings if needed to deal with any volume differences. for me i have those bare knuckles set just right for bridge and neck output and tones and the in-between tone (position 2) is a great sound with that blend. Hope this helps!

    Bit of a weird one but my friend bought the same brand of guitar as your dad's and upon doing some rewiring work for him I discovered that the humbuckers were actually single coil pickups made to look like humbuckers, by the tone I'm assuming yours dads is the same I could be wrong though but deffo worth upgrading made a huge difference 🙂

      Good question and short answer there’s no one size fits all. If I were you I’d sit with a screw driver with your amp and guitar and put them about halfway up. See how you like the sound. Then see what works best. Or look on a forum at the normal pickup to string height for a strat and set them there then tweak. It’s all about personal preference. I have the middle one a little lower than the others for 2 reasons. 1 it can get in the way if it’s too high and 2 when blending with a really hot bridge pickup, having the middle one a little further away when using both together should drop a little volume and mellow the sound. HAPPY TWEAKING!

      sorry for just getting back to you, I admit these were some crazy gauges but with that lower scale length I needed the stability. but I have changed now.

    What's happening with the Dragon Burst Ibanez RGA42 James? The Chapman looks a beauty 👌 I tried a PRS in the Shop, and the Ibanez RGA42! I much preferred the Ibanez. Fell in love with the Ibanez fret board.

      I actually ended up selling it. Someone made me an offer and I ended up selling it. I’ve had that guitar twice now and I have to put it down to the neck I think. The sound of it is great but most of my guitars have had vintage necks on them so I just couldn’t get used to the thin neck. I also did put the money towards the chapman too!

    I know that prs is 25 scale but my god a 62?!? 😂 I wouldn’t even use that unless it was atleast A# on a Gibson scale.

      😂😂 lol! Well I’ve changed my drop C guitar now because I think those massive strings were one of my issues when I got tendonitis…
