Bull****.
We’ve all heard legions of people claim EMG pickups completely override the natural sound of a guitar. From here on out, every time I see someone post that, I’m going to remember not to listen to any of their advice after that.
I have a Schecter C-1 Platinum that sounds great with EMGs. 81/81, 81/85, 85/81... doesn’t matter. It’s gnarly as hell whichever way I combine them. I decided to try the 85/81 in my PRS SE CU24 today. First I did it at 18V. Didn’t like it. Swapped to 9V. Still don’t like it. Gonna go back to the stock SE HFS/VB, and it’ll probably go back to being awesome.
