Pow_22 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 As part of my ongoing project ive received these pickups. Obviously they are the older solder type rather than the more modern solderless ones EMG now seem to produce. However, how can i tell exactly what EMG pickups these are? Im assuming they are an active set (im hoping so anyway) and once my project is at the wiring stage ill probably whip it off to my local tech. Hopefully these will eventually match up with a EMG jazz bridge pup and a spector tonepump pre amp! Anyway, any thoughts on what model of EMG these may be?

denki109 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 They are EMG Original P pickups. It's only in the last decade or so that they've increased their model options. These are largely colour coded (Gold=Alnico/Silver=Ceramic) now. Original Recipe EMG pickups are lovely all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denki109 Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 PS They're active pickups. And, should you wish to pair it with an EMG Jazz Bass pickup - the 'Original J' will be a fine companion for what you've got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
