With the added dynamic control of the X Series preamp, the 81X takes the
classic 81 to a new level of tone. Utilizing powerful ceramic magnets
and close aperture coils, the tone was designed with detailed intensity,
incredible amounts of high end cut, and fluid sustain. Traditionally
used in the bridge position of your guitar, this humbucking pickup will
make your leads slice right through even the densest mix. When used in
both neck and bridge positions the sound can only be described as
blistering. Other recommended pairings include the classic 81X/85X setup
and the versatile 81X/60X combo. EMG's solderless installation makes
swapping your guitar pickups easier than ever.
The 60X humbucker packs plenty of output with a balance of thick, boosted mids, big lows and singing highs. Featuring close aperture coils, similar to a mini-humbucker, this model produces rich harmonic overtones with plenty of sustain. Due to its ceramic magnets, the EMG 60X has a full treble response and loads of output, great for distinct single-note solos. With the addition of the X Series preamp, the 60X provides even more clarity and character to your guitar than the original. Like all EMG active guitar and bass pickups, the 60X installs without the use of a soldering iron, making it easy to do at home.
