The EMG 81 is our most famous model; the one that started a revolution. Utilizing powerful ceramic magnets and close aperture coils, the tone is endowed with detailed intensity, incredible amounts of high end cut and fluid sustain. Traditionally used in the bridge position, this pickup will make your leads slice right through even the densest mix like a hot knife. When used in both positions the sound can only be described as blistering. Other recommended pairings include the classic 81/85 setup and the versatile 81/60 combo. Copyrights of EMG Inc, USA.
If you're a fan of any metal or hard rock music, i'm assuming that you would know this monster pickup. A wide range of musicians installed these 'output-monster' on their electric guitar of choice.
The sound that you can achieve from these pickups are a strong thick, low bottom yet piercing sound which is the precision choice for finding that 'chugga-chugga' sound. If you're anxious to know of what the characteristics of this pickup is like, here are sample artists that are known to use them:
- Kirk Hammett (Lead Guitarist, Metallica)
-Zakk Wylde (Lead Guitarist, Pantera)
- Chad Gilbert & Steve Klein (New Found Glory Guitarists)
