    Is anyone here experienced with EMG?

    Well, ok mr fancy pants, can you riddle me this? Lol I love real world application stuff like this. How does the battery life of the series with its vlpf compare to the standard series? I have not found a concrete answer to this. I wouldnt mind the db drop, but if the battery life drops to...

    Is anyone here experienced with EMG?

    Standard emgs are more compressed due to the circuitry, whereas the X series are more dynamic. Some see this as thin. Check out the 57/66tws. The single coil tones are crazy good. The humbucker tones are very much in the hotrodded paf set vein. I have 2 sets of these and use them all the...

    Something Different - EMGs.....

    I know that. I meant that they're standard coils with an active circuit attached, not the small weak coils that get amplified and eq'd up like the standard, as in non retroactive, line up. They make 3 lines: the og actives, the retros, and the passive HZs. Not sure how that got translated to...

    2025 is the Year of Purple Guitars --> Let's See 'Em!

    Here's my lone contribution A mucle car purple js2450. What a guitar! I kinda knew 25 years ago that it would be a great fit, but never saw one in the wild to try. It took 30 seconds to confirm that. Lol. I'm a huge fan of RGs, and this makes them seem.....tame by comparison? Satch...

    Something Different - EMGs.....

    Emg57 is their most paf like bridge humbucker. The tw version splits nicely. I think they also do a 60tw special order. Take a look at the X series for less of the compressed emg thing.

    Which is brighter? SH-2n Jazz neck or SH-10n Full Shred neck?

    I have one of these! I dropped tonerider rebel 90s in it. It sounds better. I'm a dimarzio guy, but I think a set of 59s would sound great in here. if I wanted high output, I go withva custom 5/FS neck combo. I have a set of full shreds I can get back to try out. I think they both...
