Has anyone tried Marty Friedman set from EMG? I've heard it doesn't really sound much like the JB, if anything they're a tame version of them but I just wanted to confirm here. I really like his tone in Rust in Peace (Megadeth), I know he used a Kelly with one JB back then.
I'd just get a regular JB but the trembucker options are limited, I hate chrome and I don't care much about the traditional look either; I also wanted to get the Sentient with it but they won't match. I wish Seymour Duncan had options like Bare Knuckles, EMG and DiMarzio to customize at least the color of the poles. Anyway, I'm not convinced he based his EMG passive pups on the JB, hard to tell with certainty, he doesn't mention them at all when he talks about his set, maybe that's just because they're EMG?
