EMG 89X HUMBUCKER DUAL & SINGLE COIL MODE Pickup, Short Shaft, BRUSHED BLACK CHROME -NEW

EMG 89X HUMBUCKER DUAL & SINGLE COIL MODE Pickup, Short Shaft, BRUSHED BLACK CHROME -NEW 

The 89X is part of EMG's Dual Mode series, meaning this active pickup can be used both as a humbucker and a single coil. EMG Dual Mode pickups house separate preamps and coils for a custom humbucker and single coil sound at your fingertips. In either mode, the clean sound is gorgeously pristine and with a lot of presence. Used equally in bridge and neck positions. Whether you are playing hard rock or jazz, you can get it all with this beautifully balanced and versatile pickup.

The 89X is loaded with Alnico V magnets, the humbucker sound is rich, warm and powerful, but still clear and articulate, similar to the 85. The single coil mode, accessed via the included push pull pot, delivers the traditional Strat single coil sound: bright, airy, and chimey, and is very similar to the EMG SA.

The X series preamp gives the pickup a more dynamic range along with increased headroom while keeping the more traditional string-to-string balance. X series pickups also come with an Active Tone Control (VLPF) designed to roll-off (attenuate) high frequencies, similar to a typical passive tone control. The result is a noiseless guitar pickup with a classic EMG sound that bridges the gap between active and passive. 

Manufacturer's Note: Make sure to check the instructions for pickup measurements before purchasing to compare your existing pickups with EMG models.
