Description

Upgrade your guitar tone with the EMG 85X Humbucker in black. This pickup is designed to provide an organic and open voice, utilizing the extra headroom and response found in the EMG X series. By using close aperture coils loaded with Alnico V magnets, the 85X delivers a powerful sound with exceptional versatility for any player. The Alnico magnets create a muscular growl combined with smooth lead tones. This makes the pickup a reliable choice for a wide range of musical styles, from blues to extreme metal.
