Microphones METAL by excellence

This is a first review hot, I use it for a few days, but then what power! At the same time everything works with two 9V batteries.
I have another guitar with EMG, compared to Seymour Duncan they have much less power, but are a bit more accurate. However, SD is so powerful that even the slightest error in the game is even more amplified.
The sound is warm and SD titanic, I play on Bugera 333XL, it takes a kick in the butt every big deal and palm mute is jubilant. The amp saturates clear sound with the bridge pickup is to tell you that this mic is exclusively made for the big metal and nothing else.

At the installation (on a Gibson Explorer 84), be careful they are longer than the passive pickups I had hair, hence the need to expand the knockouts, and must make the place to put the two 9V batteries.
Everything is provided in the kit, knobs, jack, wiring, surround microphones, it only remains for the brave to get out the soldering iron.
Value / price given the price at which I bought at Thomann, I would do without hesitation that choice even if compared with Blackouts or EMG there is no system of seamless connection.

High Gain amps used on any lamp simus, DI, with lots of other mics including EMG 81-85
mainly to the large metal.

I did a comparison of output levels -> 2x output voltage higher than any other microphone. EMG 81 = HS8 example (note the output level will influence the level of ditorsion but not the tone, eh!)
So: -> ultra high gain distortion full even on an amp a little winded.

typed report and elegant, unique, rich in harmonics and rich mids.

But why SD has changed his tune and arrested? really exeptional.

Ultimately, it would make the most anemic micro amps of power as a monster! and if you are lucky enough to own a mesa correct (or any other amp lamp) you can, live or repeating 'you free of common mortals! I defy anyone to make a palm muting and not having chills ...

Note: Mount Bridge position.

Aie Aie Aie!

The Livewire Metal is simply buy the closed eyes, if you like the sounds that the body, palm mute sharp without becoming cold, the gain on your distortion becomes aggressive, a 20-watt amp for a password 100 ...

I possd long EMG 81 (always the way), the Seymour is suprieur (I use it for a year), it is indescribable, it can be found at low prices OCCAZ, I résumé:

Body, dynamics, gain, and heat and sustain these growing in a corner ... short, it's almost the HiFi guitar pickup for ...

MONUMENTAL!
