There is no other pickup built as well as an EMG. The coils are precision wound, matched both resistively and inductively, and finally, vacuum sealed. EMG's are easy to install, and are designed for direct replacement into most standard instruments... It's sound, it's power, it's look...
Well, since 1974. and it's "garage days" up to date, there is no better way to improve the sound and the performance of your instrument!
