What PUPs are you loving?

[Nightbat]

EMG 81

there can be only one...

Even if there could be only one, the 81 surely wouldn't be it


What you state is like looking for the greatest shredder, the ultimate guitar god
...and pick Kirk Hammett

[Cosmiceddie]

My favourite bridge pickup is the El Diablo by Seymour Duncan.

Through a Marshall I really enjoy the JB, but if I play with the Mesa Marks I like the X2N or EMG 81.

[Nightbat]

No, different
I personally think the 85 is the better of the EMG p'ups, but even then I still do not consider it 'best'
There is no 'best'

im a big Iron Gear fan.. I have a Rolling Mills in the neck of my hsh strat.. really diggin the tone.. i have 1 sec of actives, 2 single coils and 2 humbucker models by iron gear..Rolling mills just stands out.. the pig iron sc sounds nice too

My absolute favorite pup is my 1979 T TOP pup in my #1 dk-2.. sounds phenomenal IMO.. very creamy and harmonically pleasing to my ears.. I wish i could split it though.. LOL..

i really prefer medium output pups.. some say you cant do metal with 'em.. i say BS

im also liking the fender triplebucker in my stagemaster.. did not think i would and only really bought one just to experiment with..had to do some research and a bit DMM probing/note taking to figure out how to wire it though..

I'm going to try a set out. You like the rolling mills best eh?

Mine lives in a box of parts

I've got a 25th anniversary chrome 81 set... one lives in a box of parts, the other one lives in the neck of my all mahogany Les Paul Studio with an 85 in the bridge.

My favorite pickup at the moment is probably a DiMarzio Norton, replacing the JB, in my Hamer Special.

[Snoogans]

Big Iron Gear fanboy here too!
I have Strats with various combinations of Pig Iron, Jailhouse Rail and Steam Hammers.

[Aso]

I am really liking the SD Black Winters.

[Tetsuo]

Just ordered a set can't wait to try them out

[toejam]

I've been wanting to try Black Winters, too. I almost went with one for my 8-string, but opted for the Nazgul instead.

I actually have an 81 in a guitar now. Have since picked up another Fusion Plus, this time with an 81/85 set. I'm liking the 81 in the bridge. Haven't tried swapping them around yet. Could be a job for next string change.

[toejam]

I had an 81 in the bridge of a Dinky Reverse, also had the two 81s in my older Hamer, they were okay, but I just prefer the 85.
