OK i know that the emg hz h4 is a model of the emg 81 without the 'active' in it.... i'm planning to use that as my bridge p-up for my guitar.... but i haven't got a clue which emg is a good neck p-up that is a lot more mellow rather than harsh. (looking for an alnico type magnet for the neck)

Re: EMG neck p-up suggestions?
Are you sure the H4 is supposed to mimic the 81? I played with one, and it didn't make me think that at all. Regardless, I don't know if there's any EMG passive that'll fit the bill. Maybe the old ones with the exposed polepieces?
Do you just happen to have one of these, or do you really dig the tone? I don't mean to sound rude, but the general concensus (myself included) is that the passive EMGs aren't all that great.

Alexi Laiho from Children of Bodom uses the H4, IIRC he stated the reason is because the 81 is too hot for him.
I´d like to give you more help, but the only EMGs I really know my way around are the activesZerberus Industries: Where perfection just isn't good enough.
