«  A very good mic EMG! »

I mount the microphone on a WSL Barybone (baritone), which was equipped with a Kent Armstrong MotherBucker quad micro coils which was certainly a good mic but not so versatile!

The EMG 81 TW has the typical sound of 81 no difference with the 81 "normal" in short, so we know what to expect! it is perfect on the baritone.
Split mode, the microphone is crystalline without parasite, it has a very similar tone stratocaster EMG S but due to the hot ceramic magnet, in short a very good sound simple microphone and without any parasite!

I think a configuration micro EMG 89 + EMG 81 TW would be a perfect and versatile guitar!

In short I recommend the 81TW to those who love the sound of 81 typical metal but also has sought to have a good clear sound to play more cool stuff!
