Emg-60 in the bridge?

[Mephis]

Has anyone tried it?

After hearing how it sounds in the neck i'd like to hear it in the bridge, BUT my EMG's are 60neck and 89 bridge so i can't just swap em like a regular set.

Im guessing it'd sound awesome. I think its a little muddy/overlybassy in the neck.

if your emg's have the quick connect then you can swap them quite simple and since no emg is specially designed for a specific position it's worth trying(ok,the 60 is mainly for neck use). I will try sometimes(all my emgs are quick connects) and tell you guys about it.

My 60 isn't bassy in the neck at all however, I do have it set fairly low.

It sounds very single coil-like to me so I dont' know how it would sound in the bridge if you like a nice solid strong humbucker type tone.

Hey Mephis would it be possible for you to record me a clip with the 89b/60n I've been thinking about getting a set of those.

He has an 89 in the bridge....it uses more wires.

Sorry, I dont have anything except a teamspeak mic to do any kind of recording, and I might as well play unpluged if im going to do that.


Anyway, Has anyone tried the emg-60 in the bridge? Have soundclips?

not really newer 89s have the same quick connector(looked at it in my own guitar and emgs website says same thing)

EMG 89

Re: Emg-60 in the bridge?

what he means is that it gets wired for the dual mode function, the 89 that is. since the 60 is only a single function humbucker it wouldn't be wired up properly with the same wiring scheme as the 89.

Josh Rand from Stone Sour uses two 60s in most of his guitars.
