The Best EMGS Are Now Fishmans

  • Hey Phil, that's my 98-99 ibanex rg7 on the wall back there you bought from me about 9 years ago when you had your old shop. Would love to buy it back if you sell it!!! Kinda regret selling it. Came from professional music center in Des Moines. Bought it for myself as high school graduation present in 99 haha.

    I put EMG 81 and 85 pickups in my first guitar before I even knew a scale. Kinda takes me back..
  • @sgt.grinch3299
    It is a nice set of tones. I loved the older EMGs. These are impressive pickups.
  • I love that guitar - it's a great demo instrument! Those pickups sound awesome for metal/high gain tones!
  • @MontanaroPablo
    I think it's very interesting to compare them to the Devin Townsend set, both are a reinterpretation of EMG pickups
  • @MusicTherapyLaz
    Love that old EMG sound! My first electric, a Wayne Robert Charvel designed Gibson, the WRC SR-71, was the first electric guitar I bought with my own money. A Super-Strat guitar made in 1988, it had an EMG SSH setup with individual mini switches to select each pickup on or off. It was stolen during a home robbery in 2006 ... though I still have the case. Wish I still had that guitar... it was AWESOME! 😎🎸🤘

    Your demo makes those pickups sound better than the Fishman video with the man himself. I wasn't wild about how they sounded in their video but they sounded outstanding in this one. Well done indeed.
  • @fullmetaflak
    Not gonna lie, I don't normally like the sound of actives clean, but that really like both voices clean
  • @DaleLyons31
    Wished EMG's got more love. Classic, precise, aggressive, inexpensive, easy to install.
  • @dexterj5615
    Honestly ive been really blown away with everything fishman has made. Particularly their bass soapbars. They sound like P, J, and MM all in one
  • @two50ne77
    sounds so brutal but cleans up pretty pretty prettty pretty good
  • @mikecarreca7864
    Hi Philip, they do sound good. I have several guitars with Seymour Duncan's, but I may have to consider trying it that way. When I received the YouTube notification of this video and saw Mick Thompson, the first thing I thought of was the Mickey Thompson N50s tires I had on the back of all my hot rods in the 60s.
  • @jjones8817
    Your review videos are always enjoyable to watch. Thank you for another great product review!! See you Friday KYG 🤘🤓

    Honestly I always preferred Seymour Duncan active, I have a guitar with the original active Heavy metal Live wire and and Peavey guitar with Seymour Duncan blackouts. I have another guitar with EMGs , I just prefer the midrange on the Duncan's. I don't mind these, just not my thing right now. I did get the Eminence DV-77 speaker he did and put it in my Marshall JCM800 4010 combo, absolutely love that speaker!
