EMG 18v: Like or Dislike?

Re: EMG 18v: Like or Dislike?

Because you build an 18v battery pack with them. The three 9v clips are soldered together in a Y-pattern, 2 of them are used for the batteries, the third gets hooked to the battery clip in the guitar. No modifications to the guitar needed.

Thanks, and to screamingdaisy also. I knew there had to be a reason.

I've put EMG's in a japanese strat, Ibanez and Les Paul. Sounded totally different in each, and killer in the les paul, especially with 18 volts

yeah, my reckoning is they work better in denser-wood guitars, from what i've seen now, anyway.
