I mount this on my plate except Highway 1 Start for a year. I n'tais particulirement not looking for the sound of D. Gilmour, seeking plutt amliorer the sound of the Stratocaster. The cot of this there is no risk of being the (except mounting the plate on a Jim Harley) and fortunately, because the investment is consquent in new and rare opportunity.
The first contact by opening the box is a matter of taste. EMG provides a three-ply sheet of quality but perloide white boxes with mismatched micro ivory (odd, there is pout of EMG SA white) but hey, you get used to the long run.
First advantage of the kit, there is little welding done only at the output jack and battery, the rest of the plate as Fully cable and fix (pickups, knobs, slecteur). Widely affordable by most of those who are accustomed to their cable jack rpar.
Then, 11 screws, strings and the pleasure of hearing his strat transfigured. Free MP3, believe me, but the layer becomes more versatile. Without touching anything, it maintains a sound strat (phew!) Especially in position 1, 3, 5, just under 2 and 4 but without it being catastrophic.
Then the two knobs for tone, replaced by an EXG expander and SPC booster, will allow to explore new world of sound on a Start.
The EXG expendeur removes mdiums and increases the bass and treble (with power output of active-channel saturated with the slamming of a layer, this is trs INTERESTED).
The booster boosts mdium medium (si! if!) And allows the maximum a single EMG SA made to approach the output of a humbucker (watch closer, not gallery).
As everything is progessive, it allows a lot of rglages ...
Last but the absence of extraneous noise, you can let go the ropes and dene to hear the slightest hum.
Only inconvnient the battery. Fortunately it lasts a long time, one year for mine but if it is placed in the dfonce of knobs, the change requires removing the strings and the eleven dvisser plate screws and vice versa. Mrs once a year, this quiet ...
There is a simple trick to avoid this, without going through the installation of a battery case by a luthier. Just reverse the output jack plate and screw the jack upside down. The output jack is the collection's outdoor body of the guitar and the small plate dfonce output jack is free to put the 9v battery. Dvisser only two screws without touching the strings to change the battery, it is more convenient, even if your strat becomes less standard (prvoir question of curiosity). The IDE is not mine but a council of Chenaouy Kamel in his book Guitar maintenance.
This plate is CHRE (too?) Otherwise I would have given it 10 but once installed on a good strat (Mex Sunburst Highway, US std ...), I do not think one can regret this acquisition.
