Basses EMG Fretted Instrument Accessories & Parts | Emg Metal Works Jh James Hetfield Humbucker Signature Set Gold

In Early 2009, James Hetfield Contacted Emg Pickups President Rob Turner And Presented Him With A Challenge: To Create A “Stealth” Looking Set That Captures The Clarity And Punch Of A Passive Pickup And Still Retains The Legendary Active Tone That Molded A Generation.

Now Available In Emg Metal Works Finishes And Emg’S Solderless Installation System Components, The Jh Set Consists Of The Jh-N (Neck) And The Jh-B (Bridge). Both Pickups Were Patterned After The Pickups James Has Used For 30 Years But The End Result Was A Completely Different Animal. The Jh-N Has Individual Ceramic Poles And Bobbins That Feature A Larger Core And Are Taller Than The 60. This Produces More Attack, Higher Output, And Fuller Low End In The Neck Position. The Jh-B Uses The Same Type Of Core But Has Steel Pole Pieces, Unlike The 81 That Uses Bar Magnets. This Produces The Familiar Tight Attack With Less Inductance For A Cleaner Low End.

The 81 Is The Most Famous Model; The One That Started A Revolution. Utilizing Powerful Ceramic Magnets And Close Aperture Coils, The Tone Is Endowed With Detailed Intensity, Incredible Amounts Of High End Cut And Fluid Sustain. Traditionally Used In The Bridge Position, This Pickup Will Make Your Leads Slice Right Through Even The Densest Mix Like A Hot Knife. When Used In Both Positions The Sound Can Only Be Described As Blistering. Other Recommended Pairings Include The Classic 81/85 Setup And The Versatile 81/60 Combo.
