Amazing Pickups
phObIcK 26.06.2025
Super versatile pickups that can be wired in many different ways.
I have wired mine in order to get a coil split push/pull volume potentiometer for each pickup (neck and Bridge) and a in/out phase + a parallel/series + a preamp on/off switches using the low/mid/high preamp potentiometers (push/pull).
If I didn't care about versatility I could simply wire them as humbuckers and use one volume pot for each.
With or without a preamp, using a complex or simple wiring scheme, these pickups will sound great, outputing a very clean and balanced signal, with nice mids and highs, and yet full of that precious bass.

Well known EMG-Quality
Bushman 17.02.2014
Great Pickups! I use them in my 5 String tuned in Drop-C with Stainless-Steel-Strings. The Neck-Pickup has a veeery deep Sound and gives you a fat low-End, the Bridge-Pickup is full of Mids and Highs with really much Attack.
I use these Pickups with a Pu-Balance-Poti and turn it a little bit to the Bridge Pick-Up. With a little Bit of Bass-Boost and High-Cut at the EQ of my Amp i get exactly the Sound i want: A loud Low-End with punchy Mids. (I play Metal, mostly). Compared to the Pick-Ups that i used before the EMGs (some China-Stuff i bought with a "Build-Your-Own-Bass"-Kit) the EMG-Tone is very clear and I hear myself much better on Stage than before.

Great sound, easy installation
Theodoor 15.04.2025
This EMG 40HZ really brought my cheap Dean Edge 09 to life! Very articulate, deep and clear tone. Since it has rails instead of separate pole pieces, it works fine on a 4-string like mine too. But it was a few mm's wider than the original, and I had to do some milling in the bass' body. The solderless installation of the pickup, pots and output jack was a breeze! The wiring diagram for a one pickup volume/tone configuration puts the pickup in series humbucking mode by default. Apparently on the EMG website there are coil switching options described, but I didn't bother. I like it the way it is!
