  • Anyone put emg's in their pc1 ?

    Looking for a pc1 but I'm thinking of swapping out the stock pups for some emg's. I've got the super 3 in 2 of my guitars now so I'm looking to change the tone a little. Always liked emg's and in a mahogany body should sound good.

      But if you do do it, sell me the sustainer.

          Ditto on the previous comments!

            EMGs work best with toneless woods.

              I have to agree with that. And do you know changing pickups on a PC1 is sacrilegious around here?

                I think changing the PC-1 pickups makes perfect sense. Rick was kidding, he doesn't actually want your sustainer. But I do.
                I want REAL change. I want dead bodies littering the capitol.

                  Someone on here bought a Euphoria with EMG's all around and it didn't come with the sustainer either. Can't remember who...
                  Why not just take out the Super 3 and try either a Tone Zone or one of the new D Activator pickups?

                    i have EMG's in my solar PC-1. i made the switch because the sustainer died.

                    don't do it.

                    it sucks.

                    it makes a great guitar sound like an average guitar.

                    when i get around to it, they are ALL coming out and my PC-1 is going back to being a passive guitar.
                    GEAR:

                    some guitars...WITH STRINGS!!!! most of them have those sticks like on guitar hero....AWESOME!!!!

                    some amps...they have some glowing bottle like things in them...i think my amps do that modelling thing....COOL, huh?!?!?!

                    and finally....

                    i have those little plastic "chips" used to hit the strings...WHOA!!!!

                      Mark... what happened to the sustainer?
                      I have a gnarly set of tools. I can fix anything.
                      Death is relative when it comes to electronics.
                      PM me... I may be able to repair it for you. I've fixed a few for people here before. Most issues are easily fixed.
                      A PC1 isn't a PC1 without a sustainer.

                        No, but I'd love a PC1 without one, but all the same specs otherwise.

                          I think they called that the SD III, since that is what the PC1 was designed after.
                          Had the Koa body of an SD I, but the QM top and hardware/layout of the SD III.
                          And of course a Maple board.
