EMG Pickups

In the 1980s, guitarists found themselves looking for more and more gain as hard-rock and heavy metal picked up traction. EMG answered the call, pioneering active pickup systems that had a far higher output than anything else on the market.

They very quickly became one of the go-to options for guitarists who desired unprecedented levels of high-gain punch. Brandished by the likes of Metallica, Slayer, Judas Priest and countless others, they remain titans in the pickup category!

Our range includes their staple sets, such as the classic 81 & 85 Active combo, as well as a range of signature pickups from Steve Lukather, Kerry King and many more! Take a look at our full selection below!
