    EMG EMG-P

    EMG PPublished on 07/12/04 at 15:00
    i have a generic P-bass and the stock pickups in it were terribly hollow sounding. i would usually run it through an effects box to mask the hollow sound. as of late, my effects box has lost volume output and and it doesnt have any treble in the mix. so i looked at new boxes but didnt fine a good one in my price range. then i realized that i needed new pickups, not a new box. so i looked at EMGs because im a fan of les claypool. i read a bunch of reviews for them and i went to guitar center and purchased a set for 80 bucks.

    i like the looks, they are very professional looking. the sound is great, they have a huge bottom end but still clear highs. very easy install, i only soldered 3 wires…

    i like the looks, they are very professional looking. the sound is great, they have a huge bottom end but still clear highs. very easy install, i only soldered 3 wires. when i played the low E for the first time through my bassman 25, it rattled everything in my room. i droped it down to D and it was awesome.

    the tone could be a little more dynamic but its not worth complaining about.

    the pickups themselves are really solid little things. they have plugs on the underside that connect to each other and then to the pots and make for easy installation. the wires are heavy duty. the pots are solid with smooth action and sound. the plug is solid as well, it wont come out on accident.

    great set of pickups. they made my bass sound like an expensive bass you see in the stores. i like them and recomend them to p-bassers who need to replace their stocks.

    I use these active pickups for over a week, posed by my favorite dealer ..! what I love about these pickups is their punch in all areas, I've been asked a Japanese brand Eagle Precision with original pickups a bit limited, and being given that I bought this played low to drop in and being a fan of Robert Trujillo, the choice was not carried very far ..! over my guitarist Zakk Wylde EMG also a LAG Roxanne and it's really bleuffant, the EMG P sounds more than the guitars, approved by my favorite retailer ...! really big sound ideal for it or slamming heavy and greasy, long sustain and it sounds incredibly over the top and bottom of the handle on any strings, from now my little precision sound…

    I use these active pickups for over a week, posed by my favorite dealer ..! what I love about these pickups is their punch in all areas, I've been asked a Japanese brand Eagle Precision with original pickups a bit limited, and being given that I bought this played low to drop in and being a fan of Robert Trujillo, the choice was not carried very far ..! over my guitarist Zakk Wylde EMG also a LAG Roxanne and it's really bleuffant, the EMG P sounds more than the guitars, approved by my favorite retailer ...! really big sound ideal for it or slamming heavy and greasy, long sustain and it sounds incredibly over the top and bottom of the handle on any strings, from now my little precision sounds as good as my other basses has just over 600 euros with microphones at 100 euros (the case of the century)

    So as said above supports a wonder the drop tuning and below, my love Ashdowm 300 watts as well as any after effects (wah, distortion, chorus ..!

    All style if found ... I do it again without hesitation and this choice the board has all the bass player looking for a crisp, flawless, precise, going straight to the point and not too expensive, it will literally change your bass ... Finally, especially its

    But on the one hand I say this, but I is not try other models and you have even a low-kan with a body that rings a minimum of origin because it is not the miracle product, but as the Most of my musical influences are equipped with EMG, I hesitated too and I do not regret it at all ..! Voilou
