I use it for one month on a Ltd EC1000 VBK and for 6 months on a Jackson RR24 apartennant to my brother.
I had already tried various models (Gibson 500t, 498.496, EMG and Seymour Duncan Dimebucker 81,60,85, Blackout, SH4, sh2, 59) and I find the EMG 81 on the dreaded crunch and distortion.
I play mostly hard rock / heavy metal (AC / DC, Iron Maiden, Metallica ..) but also classic rock (Led Zep ,...) and I think this mic to a huge response on a mahogany body. playing in the volume, I get sounds really interesting and perfectly suited to my influences. Like what, not forced to play 11 so that it sounds. . .
I love the special ceramic magnet / active pickups. It is a very good combination that perfectly addresses the effects (a slight chorus on a high saturation gives you fast sound 80 ').
I want to say that the EMG 81 respectively lutherie.En the effect, I compared the Jackson RR24 my brother and my EC1000 on my amp. "And the result is obvious: the Jackson, features an alder body , neck and neck-thru OFR, delivers a loud, which did not sustain a lot and seems really synthetic. In contrast, the EC1000 is the presence in the low-frequency and frequency médianes.Hors, it has a mahogany body, a tune-o-matic and a set neck.
I also note that the EMG 81 is often installed in the bridge. Inevitably, the sounds are not clear .. So good that round, the clean sound is great!
I find the value for money very good, because it is a micro reliable, not too expensive and sending severe.
